HIGHER THAN THE STARS COULD BE
Further than the endless seas
Far beyond tomorrow
Your love carries me
I was lost, my heart asleep
You gave everything for me
When I called You answered
You have rescued me
You’re everything I need
Jesus, forever over us
You have written love
Saviour, you have rescued us
Forever over us with love
You’re so much more than just belief
King of all but friend to me
You have all of my heart
You have captured me
One day everyone will see
Broken hearts will know Your peace
There’ll be no more sorrow
We will all be free
One day we will see
And oh we will be free
Over us over us You have written love.
