I See Love

This week was a good week. It's the week of Good Friday and Easter. Throughout this week, I made more of the effort to meditate upon Christ and what He has done. My morning devotionals have been on the latter half of the Gospels--the chronological events leading up to Christ's crucifixion and resurrection. In remembrance of Good Friday, I decided to listen to Tim Keller's sermon, "Mocking Jesus". I've listened to this powerful sermon at least 10 times, and it never gets old. After the sermon, the song "Third Day, Steven Curtis Chapman, Mercyme-I See Love" came on. This is seriously one of my favorite songs. The lyrics are so good.

Some see a teacher
Standing on a hill
Speaking words of wisdom
Some see a healer
Reaching out his hand
To give sight to a blind man
Some see a dreamer
Wasting his life
On what can never be
Some see a fool
Dying for his dreams

But I see love (I see love)
I see love (I see love)
Light of heaven breaking through
Well I see grace (I see grace)
I see God's face (I See Gods face)
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
I see love

Some see a prisoner
Alone before his judge
With no one to defend him
Some see a victim
Beaten and abused
With all the world against him
Some see a martyr
Carrying his cross
For what he believes
Some see a hero
Who set his people free

But I see love (I see love)
I see love (I see love)
Light of heaven breaking through
Well I see grace (I see grace)
I see God's face (I See Gods face)
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you


With your last breath
I see love
Through your death
I see love
I see peace in the eyes of the king
I see hope in your suffering (I see love)
I see a calm in the center of the storm
I see a Saviour

I see love
I see love
Light of heaven breaking through (heaven breaking through)
I see grace
I see God's face
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
I see love
When I see you
I see heaven breaking through
See Gods face
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
I see love
I see love
When I see

Some see Him walking from an empty grave...
