Rich Mullins - The Love Of God Lyrics

There's a wideness in God's mercy I cannot find in my own And He keeps his fire burning To melt this heart of stone Keeps me aching with a yearning Keeps me glad to have been caught In the wreckless raging fury That they call the love of God

Now I've seen no band of angels But I've heard the soldier's songs Love hangs over them like a banner Love within them leads them on To the battle on the journey And it's never gonna stop Ever-widening their mercies And the fury of His love

Oh the love of God Oh the love of God The love of God

Joy and sorrow are His ocean And in their every ebb and flow Now the Lord a door has opened That all hell could never close Here I'm tested and made worthy Tossed about but lifted up In the wreckless raging fury That they call the love of God
