“I love pizza”, “I love your music”, “I love this T.V. show”. We’ve all heard and said these words. We are all guilty of overusing the word. But what does love really mean? I am not talking about the Hollywood, hot-pink, over-the-counter love. I am talking about pure, genuine, and unconditional love.
John McMillan shares his wonderful story about how he wrote the song “How He Loves”. Be blessed. :)
The story behind “How He Loves”
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 how beautiful you are
And how great your afflictions for meOh how he loves us so
Oh how he loves us
How he loves us soYea He loves us
Oh howWe are his portion
And he is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in his eyes
If grace is an ocean we’re all sinking
So heaven meats earth like a sloppy wet kiss
And my heart burns violently inside of my chest
I don’t have time to maintain these regrets
When I think about the way
He loves usOh how he loves us
Oh how he loves us
How he loves us
