HAVE YOU HEARD OF A GOD OF LOVE
Of a God who cares?
Have you heard how he came among us
Stepping down from the heights of heaven
Breathing air He made
Have you heard He was one of us
Shared our joy and tears?
Did you know he restored the broken
Healed the lame, made the blind to see
Brought his kingdom near
Oh the love, the love that God has shown
Oh the joy of forgiveness
Come, oh come, let us kneel before the cross
This is love, this is love
Have you heard He was crucified
On a Roman cross?
Did you know that He chose to suffer
To restore a Creation lost
Bearing all the cost
Have you heard He was raised to life
Bursting from the grave
Did you know that He saves forever
All who call on His mighty name
On Jesus’ name
Oh the love, the love that God has shown
Oh the joy of forgiveness
Sing, oh sing, of the God who came to us
This is love, this is love
Simon Brading, Graham Kendrick, Nathan Fellingham
