Higher than the mountains that I face
Stronger than the power of the grave
Constant through the trial and the change
One thing remains
One thing remains
Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me
(repeat 3x)
(Because)
On and on and on and on it goes
It overwhelms and satisfies my soul
And I never ever have to be afraid
One thing remains
One thing remains
In death, In life
I’m confident and covered by the power
of Your great love
My debt is paid
There’s nothing that can separate my heart
from Your great love
Your love never fails! (3x)
