He is jealous for me...


David Crowder Band - How He Loves
From the album Church Music

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 realize just how beautiful You are
And how great Your affections are for me

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


this song was originally written by john mark mcmillan. you can hear the story of this song and his original version here. i wish i could say i knew about this song and wonderful songwriter before everyone. but i didn't. that would be a lie. and you know what? liars go to hell. so i am telling the truth. okay, okay, don't get all bent our shape people i know liars don't go to hell. and honestly, thank God. because i would burn if they did. but check him out. how He loves us, how He loves me. that first line gets me every time. He is jealous for me. He. the Lord of all the universe. the God who created everything. jealous for me. jealous for my time, my heart, my mind that spends far too much time elsewhere. every time i hear this song it is a silent prayer in my heart and mind. a prayer i silently sing to my Savior.

i heard this song on the radio by david crowder band and i loved it instantly. it touched me. it tore my heart. it made me feel Him. do you have songs that do that to you?
