Verse 1:
Lo and behold who supported me, You God, patiently Your love pursued me diligently, even when I continually sought my gain away from Your words, oh what a mess I made of many situations such as getting credit cards with no means of paying the monthly statement amount, relying on human hindsight i.e. common sense by the way which I was lacking lying covering up my screw-ups, they still blew up in my face like dynamite, J.J. can you here me, those were not good times in my life, through all of these mishaps You carried me managing every time to rescue me Your disobedient and insolent child, when I attempt to rationalize You God, why You loving me so unconditionally, alright it makes no sense when I look back at my past, all the baggage I carried into our relationship in the beginning, I was destined for Hell’s hot coals with no means of returning but You carried it all to a rugged cross for me when my soul was wondering lost, yeah Your love was patient in dealing with me, You gave me a second chance opportunity, You redeemed me Your lost sheep graciously, Your love is the reason I’m so happy I gotta tell everybody Your love is so amazing Your grace saved a wretch like me turned me straight all the way into a saint, You deserve the praise, Your love is perfect no word I say can express my thanks, oh LORD Your love is...
Chorus
Verse 2:
My mouth use to spout foul words, me and all my boys thought that was so cool, we didn’t care for a second what tunes we recited, our tongues were fire igniting burning every bridge built for us but LORD Your kind love quenched that dragon when You introduced me to my future wife, a fabulous lady whose words were so sweet like honey or jam spread across bread but instead on her lovely tongue, Your woman of God changed my whole demeanor, through Your love of kindness I changed my speech, not a word I say can express my thanks for Your grace towards this lowly bond servant of Your will, praise I must give to Your glory for You are worthy for real, You blessed me despite my past history, Your love is..., Your love is..., Your love is amazing
Chorus
Verse 3:
Your love cured my misery, when I was lonely You sent the Holy Spirit to comfort me when I lived in Chicago without any family, money looking funny like monopoly, nobody around wanting to roll with me, You looked inwardly knowing my soul’s potential energy to do Your will, You blessed me considerably, You looked out for my best interest, always meeting my every need, sending angels to rescue me when I was stranded in a blizzard storm while traveling back to Chi-town from Cleveland, God I never thanked You for the mercy You granted to me that evening, I never thanked You for sparing my life when I ended up crashing my vehicle falling asleep while driving flipping and tumbling over sliding sideways, I walked away without a bruise or scratch, I never gave You the glory until now yet You never stopped loving me God, Your love has endured all my past trifling habits and ways, You have remained my best and closest friend even knowing I could never return Your favors, nothing will ever separate me from Your love Savior, Your love shall always sustain my spirit in times of distress and tribulation, God You will help me to persevere for I know all things work together for good to those who love You God and I love You sincerely, You who loved me originally and unconditionally before I ever knew who You were so hope, faith, and love remain now that I have obtained knowledge of You and myself but the greatest of the three is love neither death nor life or anything in all creation can break our bond of love, Your love is eternal and permanent, Your love is amazing
