Saturday Survey: Response to "What is your favorite Worship Song?"

So here's my response to Saturday survey: "What is your favorite worship song?"

My favorite worship song is "How He Loves".  Now it was hard for me to narrow it down to just one song.  But the more I listened to my list of top faves I knew this was my favorite worship song.  I remember hearing this song for the first time and just crying as I listened to the words. My God was jealous for me.  Exodus 34:14  New Living Translation "You must worship no other gods, for the LORD, whose very name is Jealous, is a God who is jealous about his relationship with you."   God cares about every detail of our lives. Even the details that don't seem important to our family and friends. He cares about our desires and our passions. Our jobs and love lives.

I think I shed tears almost every time I hear this song played. Either at church or on the radio. David Crowder Band does my favorite version of How He Loves.  Just thinking about God's love and how overwhelming it is.  He accepts us just the way we are. He knows us better than anyone ever will. He knows the number of hairs on our head.  Luke 12:7  New Living Translation  "And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows."

"If his grace is an ocean, then we're all sinking!"  When he forgives us, our slate is washed white as snow. He keeps no records of our wrong doing.  No sin is unforgivable.  I love losing myself in worship during this song. Raising my hands and praising God for saving me. Even on the days, and especially on the days where I don't feel very Godly. I know How He Loves me. How He loves You.

Lyrics to How He Loves:

He is jealous for me,

Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realise just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.

And oh, how He loves us oh,
Oh how He loves us,
How He loves us all

He is jealous for me,
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realise just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.

Oh how he loves,
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh! how He loves us,
Oh! how He loves us,
Oh! how He loves.

And we are His portion and He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
If His grace is an ocean, we're all sinking.
And Heaven meets earth like an (unforeseen/ sloppy wet) kiss,
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest,
I don't have time to maintain these regrets,
When I think about, the way...

Oh, how He loves us oh,
Oh how He loves us,
How He loves us all
How He loves

Yeah, He loves us,
Oh! how He loves us,
Oh! how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.
Oh what love

Yeah, He loves us,
Oh! how He loves us,
Oh! how He loves us,
Oh! how He loves us so.
