Hymn | God Loves Us to Today

Hymn | God Loves Us to Today

You become flesh on earth. Who knows how long You've been hidden. You blaze a trail to do Your work, fully tasting hardships and pain. Today You part from us. We cannot help but feel sorrow and pain. Our time together is short. Who knows when we will meet again? You've been with us in every season, guiding us towards today, never taking so much as a step away. Oh … If not for Your mercy, who knows where I would be? Thank You, God, for my salvation. That I'll recall forever!

Each day You suffered, working Your heart out for us, for us. Oh, the love I felt in Your embrace! You carried me when I was weak. Comforted when I was hurt. Encouraged when I lost heart. Each step brought me to today. Each moment I cannot forget. So hard to describe Your love. Your majesty revealed, with wrath, love and mercy. You judged my sinfulness, forgave my ignorance. Only through Your tolerance was I able to live before You. If not for Your mercy, who knows where I would be? Thank You, God, for my salvation. That I'll recall forever! (Oh … oh … oh …)

 III

 What You entrust I take to heart. I must not fail to live up to what You hope for. I'm willing to accept what comes and meet Your demands of me. I will never again be weak. If I fall I will climb to my feet. I will repay You with a true love, bear a strong testimony for You! If not for Your mercy, who knows where I would be. Thank You, God, for my salvation. That I'll recall, oh … If not for Your mercy, who knows where I would be. Thank You, God, for my salvation. That I'll recall forever! Forever, forever!
