Your Love Is Strong

Our house has had Jon Foreman's EP's in heavy rotation on all MP3 players and iTunes. Kellen even talked to Robbie about them, and Robbie was big about them - he's a huge Jon Foreman fan, and said he was working on or had already played some of the songs in church.

This particular song is a sing-along even for the boys. Ethan will call from his carseat at the back of the van that "I can't hear the music."

Right now, we've got an insane landlord, feeling pressure from the just-beginning school schedules. Work for me is awesome - and exhausting. We've got a blown cylinder in the van and today, on the way to probably the biggest presentation in my life, my tire blew out. Right there on 45.

For some reason...it just didn't get me. And maybe some other minor things do, but this one didn't. The steel belt sticking out of the shredded tire was...just another thing to do. You sigh, you shake your head, and you take care of it.

So, why do I worry? Why do I freak out?

Your Love Is Strong

Heavenly Father
You always amaze me
Let your kingdom come
In my world and in my life
You give me the food I need
To live through the day
And forgive me as I forgive
The people that wronged me
Lead me far from temptation
Deliver me from the evil one

I look out the window
The birds are composing
Not a note is out of tune
Or out of place
I look at the meadow
And stare at the flowers
Better dressed than any girl
On her wedding day

So why do I worry?
Why do I freak out?
God knows what I need
You know what I need

Chorus (3x):
Your love is
Your love is
Your love is strong

The kingdom of the heavens
Is now advancing
Invade my heart
Invade this broken town
The kingdom of the heavens
Is buried treasure
Will you sell yourself
To buy the one you've found?

Two things you told me
That you are strong
And you love me
Yes, you love me

Our God in heaven
Hallowed be
Thy name above all names
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us today our daily bread
Forgive us wicked sinners
Lead us far away from our vices
And deliver us from these prisons
