You placed the stars up in the sky
You raised the mountains way up high You placed the ground under my feet You listen to every heartbeat You paint the colors of a sunset You know the hairs on my head You dug the depths of the ocean You give freedom to emotion You speak truth through a whisper You shake the whole earth with thunder You set the wildfires ablaze You soften hearts with your gaze You are solid as a rock You are graceful as a hawk You are gentle and you are kind You are strong and you are wise You are all these things You are my everything And still I can’t see Why you choose to love me I’ll never understand The details of your plan And I know I cannot earn This grace I don’t deserve Yet you pour your blessings out I still don’t understand how How your grace and love for me Reaches far and wide and deep It covers all my sin and shame It takes away the pain and blame You’ve washed me clean In your eyes, I am free Free to laugh and dance and cry Free to marvel and wonder why As I stand in utter awe Of this beautiful love song Your words are a melody That makes my bitter heart sweet For everything we’ve been through All I can say is thank you Thank you for loving, for choosing For seeing and for proving That your love for us Is completely boundless I could go on and on and on and on And still I’d sing an empty song For I can never do justice To how much you love us There are not enough words on a page Not enough lights on a stage To honor you the way you deserve So instead, I promise to serve Your purpose, your kingdom, your will, your way I’ll let my actions and what I say Be a chorus that praises your name And tells the world of your fame Be the light in me And let others see This joy, this peace, this love Only comes from above This life I live Is the good you give And I am only free Because of Christ in me
