Lyrics
Chorus
Unfailing love,
Flows from His heart,
And heals my soul.
In spite of who I am,
He loves, and makes me whole.
I almost can't believe it's true,
Unfailing love, and yet I know,
He gave His life,
To give to me,
Unfailing Love.
Unfailing love,
Flows from His heart,
And heals my soul.
In spite of who I am,
He loves, and makes me whole.
I almost can't believe it's true,
Unfailing love, and yet I know,
He gave His life,
To give to me,
Unfailing Love.
Bridge
If the highest mountains turn to ashes,
If the mighty rivers should run dry,
Should sun and moon grow dim,
I still will trust in Him.
He's watching from above,
I'm resting in His love.
Chorus
Unfailing love,
Flows from His heart,
And heals my soul.
In spite of who I am,
He loves, and makes me whole.
I almost can't believe it's true,
Unfailing love, and yet I know,
He gave His life,
To give to me,
Unfailing Love.
Outro
I almost can't believe it's true,
Unfailing Love, and yet I know,
He gave His life to give to me,
Unfailing Love.
Unfailing Love.

Meaning & Inspiration
Unfailing Love is a song of wonder at the love of God that heals and restores. The chorus says that unfailing love flows from His heart and heals the soul, that despite who the singer is He loves and makes whole, and that it is almost hard to believe, yet the singer knows He gave His life to give this love. The lines are repeated so the central idea stays in focus.
The bridge pictures the end of everything stable: if the highest mountains turn to ashes, the mighty rivers run dry and the sun and moon grow dim, the singer will still trust in Him, watched from above and resting in His love. The themes follow Psalm 36:7 on the preciousness of steadfast love, Isaiah 54:10 on mountains being removed while His love remains, and Psalm 147:3 on healing the brokenhearted. The slow tempo and repeated chorus give the song a tender, trusting tone that suits quiet worship.
