Beyond

BEYOND
God's love is beyond measure
And beyond comprehension

Beyond pleasure 
And beyond my intention

Beyond nature
And beyond all question

Beyond human thought
Beyond all imagination

Is beyond service
And beyond self dedication

Is beyond culture
And beyond my tradition

Beyond school
And beyond my qualification

Beyond wisdom
And beyond all my inspiration

Beyond position
And beyond my perfection

God's love
Is beyond Kingdoms
And beyond Generations

Is beyond my righteousness
And beyond my compassion

Is beyond what I do
And beyond what I've done

Is beyond sky, stars
And beyond what the eyes can see

Is beyond speech
And beyond what the ear can hear

Beyond touch
And beyond what the flesh can feel

Beyond the ocean 
And beyond the deep blue sea

Beyond music 
And beyond the rhythm it

Is beyond roses
And beyond all the beautiful things

Is beyond my money
And beyond my ability

Beyond me
And beyond the depth of my heart

God's love for me is beyond 
Heaven, earth and beneath earth

Is beyond love of my parent
God's love for me is beyond ALL
