Notes About The Poem

The Love that flows from God Almighty is beyond anything
that human beings are able to conceive!  Imagine a Father
giving His only Begotten Son to redeem His human 
creations... Your only Son!!  
Praise God!

The Dept of His Love

The Depths of His Love

Oh, the depths of the Father’s love, Lord help me to proclaim it
from the sands of the shore to the midst of the seas,
why He chose to save me I don’t know but I’m so grateful He did
but then how can we understand Calvary.

For our Father’s love is so deep
it will never run dry,
and I will keep seeking His face 
and live according to His will and to me His blood is applied. 

For we know His grace is unmerited favor
not a person on this earth could ever earn,
and the Father because of love sent His Son from above
about His nature then from Him do we learn.

Now a new thing my Father is doing
refreshing my spirit from within,
refreshing, restoring and giving new love to adore Him
and submerging me totally in Him.
