YOU DID NOT CONSIDER
Using all Your strength and power
To gain Yourself an earthly crown
But instead You suffered
Pouring out Your life for us
To reconcile us back to God
What love You showed in doing this for us
My heart it overflows
So I’m pouring out a song of love and adoration
To the one who’s captivated my attention
Jesus Christ the hero of; mankind’s salvation
Thankyou Lord for this life You’ve won for me
Death could not defeat You
From the grave You rose again
Ascending to Your Father’s side
Then You sent the Spirit
Your power now at work in us
To demonstrate Your truth and light
What love You showed in doing this for us
My heart it overflows
Jesus I will follow You
Live each day consecrated to Your will
Then one day you will return
And I’ll know perfect joy forevermore
Nathan Fellingham
