Stephen Tefft Poet Lyric

Do You Know

1)	It’s so easy to forget	
	In the midst of all our pain
	That every life’s a miracle
	And no life is in vain.
	Each one of us is a treasure
	Unique, beyond compare.
	But, too often we live day to day
	Completely unaware…

Chorus:	Do you know how much you are loved?
		Do you know how much you are loved?
		Grace and mercy from our Lord
			Pours down from above…
		Do you know how much you are loved?
 
2)	It’s so easy to ignore
	We’re so caught up in our lives
	Obsessed with every failure
	That cuts just like a knife…
	We don’t hear that gentle voice
	Quietly calling our name.
	We don’t feel the Father’s love
	Wash away our every shame.

3)	It’s so easy to reject
	‘Cause the world says it’s not cool
	We fear what everyone might say.
	We fear looking like a fool.
	So we try the worldly ways
	To fill our every empty space.
	Clinging tightly to our sins
	Pushing away every grace…
