Lyrics

I have been touched, changed, healed
Totally free from sin
Every shackle broke
Now I can live again

I've been restored
I've been renewed
I've come alive because of You

I have been set free by Your love
Every mistake covered up
When all of my sins came between us
It was Your unexplainable unconditional love

I have been touched, changed, healed
Totally free from sin
Every shackle broke
Now I can live again

I've been restored
I've been renewed
I've come alive because of You

I have been set free by Your love
Every mistake covered up
When all of my sins came between us
It was Your unexplainable unconditional love
It was Your unexplainable unconditional love

It was Your Love

Now that I'm free
I can be me
Now that I'm free
I can be me
Now that I'm free
I can be me
Now that I'm free
I can be me
Now that I'm free
I can be me
It was Your unexplainable unconditional love
It was Your unexplainable unconditional love

Meaning & Inspiration

William Murphy's "Your Love," released in 2016 as part of the album *Demonstrate*, is a powerful declaration of spiritual transformation rooted deeply in the transformative power of God's love. The song chronicles a profound shift from a state of bondage to freedom, a journey initiated and sustained by an overwhelming, unconditional divine affection. The lyrical core emphasizes being "touched, changed, healed," and "totally free from sin," with every "shackle broke" allowing for a renewed existence. This echoes the Apostle Paul's testimony in Romans 7:24-25, where he cries out, "Oh, what a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!" The repeated assertion of being "restored" and "renewed" speaks to the new life believers receive, as described in 2 Corinthians 5:17: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!"

The narrative of the song unfolds as a personal testimony, highlighting how divine love overcomes sin and mistakes. Murphy articulates this with the poignant line, "Every mistake covered up... When all of my sins came between us, It was Your unexplainable unconditional love." This directly aligns with the scriptural truth found in Isaiah 1:18, "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall be like wool." The sheer magnitude of this love is described as "unexplainable" and "unconditional," a concept central to Christian theology, as exemplified in John 3:16: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." The song's progression culminates in a liberated state where the singer can finally "be me," signifying the freedom to live authentically in Christ, unburdened by guilt or shame. This liberation is a direct result of God's love, a love that redeems and empowers, allowing believers to walk in the purpose for which they were created. The repeated emphasis on "Your Love" serves not merely as a thematic refrain but as the singular source and explanation for this profound salvation.
