Loves the way that Jesus can.

He gave His life for fallen man.

Meaning & Inspiration
Legacy Five's "Boundless Love," released in 2020 on the album *Songs We Used to Sing*, stands as a profound testament to the immeasurable and unwavering affection of Jesus Christ. The song's narrative begins by drawing a stark, yet gentle, contrast between human love and divine love, positing that no earthly relationship, be it maternal, familial, or platonic, can truly parallel the depth of Christ's love. This initial assertion is immediately grounded in the ultimate act of sacrifice: "He proved His love for me when He died on Calvary," a direct reference to the crucifixion, acknowledging that this sacrifice was made for all of humanity, the "fallen man." The core message of the song is encapsulated in its titular chorus, describing this love as both "boundless" and "endless," a love that "reaches down and touches me" and "will last thru all eternity." This resonates deeply with passages like Ephesians 3:19, which speaks of experiencing "the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge," and Romans 8:38-39, which famously declares that nothing, not even death or life, can separate believers from the love of God in Christ Jesus.
The second verse expands on this divine affection, directly addressing the listener with the assurance that "Jesus wants to love you, there is none above you," and that "You are precious in his sight." This echoes the sentiment found in Psalm 139:13-14, which praises God for His wondrous creation and the preciousness of His thoughts toward us. The song further offers solace and strength in times of spiritual struggle, promising that "He will never fail you when the doubts assail you," and that "He'll be with you day and night." This speaks to the unfailing presence and support of God, as affirmed in Hebrews 13:5: "I will never leave you nor forsake you," and the promise of peace that surpasses understanding found in Philippians 4:7, which guards the heart and mind. The repeated chorus serves to reinforce the central theme, driving home the enduring and all-encompassing nature of Christ's love. "Boundless Love" isn't merely a song; it's an invitation to rest in the assurance of a love that is perfect, complete, and eternally available, a profound encouragement for anyone navigating the complexities of life, reminding them of their infinite value in the eyes of their Creator.
