BECAUSE HE FIRST LOVED ME

Daddy God, just look at me
There's so much more I can be
Won't you pick me, hold me and help me?
Just as you would a newborn baby?

And yes you do.
You hug me in times of my trouble
Carry me when I am down
You pick me up when I stumble
Forever you are around

For if any words should leave my lips
Let it be of your praise
For so mighty is you word
It must and cannot go unheard

Everlasting God, I will follow you
To the ends of the world
To the furthest windblown star
It may not be easy,
It will be a race hard won
But run shall I, as a man to win the prize
Because you offer above and beyond eternal life

I love you, I love you, I love you,
No words can express what I feel
But to know my feelings you have to except him first
For this is not a story told but one felt
