His Love - original song by Jon Weems

A great song and slideshow/video about God's love. I sang this one at church and at a Relay for Life event! One of the few times I didn't add a solo or middle section in a song, but it tells a nice story. Credit to the photographers for the pics and I used a snippet of the video from Marathon by RUSH.

LYRICS:

HIS LOVE

My life had seemed so empty
I felt so barren and alone
Like a lost soul in the desert
Wandering far away from home

Searching for an oasis
So many times been led astray
So I got down on my knees
And then I began to pray

Then your love poured down on me like rain
Filled my thirsty soul and eased my pain
I looked around in wonder
Heard your voice like distant thunder
Say I'll never have to feel alone again

I sensed a new beginning
You gave me strength to carry on
But I felt so undeserving
After all that I'd done wrong

I looked around at my life
And the mess that I had made
I was sure you must be angry
For all the times you were betrayed

Then your love came gently down like snow
Made all things glisten as my sins disappeared below
You said I've given you a fresh start
Now go out with me in your heart
And tell the world of the forgiving God you know


I knew I must do something
After all that I had learned
But I stumbled around in darkness
Wasn't sure which way to turn

I asked You Lord to help me
What could I possibly do
To spread Your joy to others
And bring them closer to You

Your love beamed down like bright sunshine
To guide me on my way and help me find
The purpose You have for me
Now I sing about Your glory
And the awesome power and grace that is divine

If you're ever feeling lonely
Or sad and in despair
And there's no one in this whole world
Who seems to even care

You're looking for some answers
One thing you can be sure of
You need look no further
Than your Father up above

And let His love pour down on you like rain
Fill your thirsty soul and ease your pain
May you look around in wonder
Hear His your voice like distant thunder
Say you'll never feel alone again

With God's love you will never be alone
