I first heard How he Loves Us on the Hillside video of Cardboard Testimonies.  If you haven't seen that video you can go here.  It's incredibly powerful and worth the time.

We have begun regularly singing it at church and it brings me to tears each time.  I continue to be blown away at the depth of the Lord's love for me.  There are details being worked out in Currey and I's life that are an unbelievable reminder of how precious we are to the Father.  There is a plan for us that is greater than anything we could ever imagine and we are in awe as we begin to see where we are headed.  We eagerly await the next phase of our journey once Currey is done with school.  He knows the desires of our hearts and He is showing us that the dreams He has given us will be fulfilled.  It is a time of great joy and anticipation.  We are blessed beyond measure and have been given more than we could deserve.  

The lyrics are great but you should you tube it.  I believe that music is incredibly powerful.

How He Loves Us

He is jealous for me,
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realise just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.

And oh, how He loves us so,
Oh how He loves us,
How He loves us all

Yeah, He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.

We are His portion and He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
If grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking.
So Heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss,
And the heart turns violently inside of my chest,
I don’t have time to maintain these regrets, 
When I think about, the way…

He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves us,
Oh how He loves.
