John Mark Mcmillan - How He Loves lyrics

rate me

Verse 1:

He is jealous for me,

Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,

Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.

When all of a sudden,

I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,

And I Realize just how beautiful You are,

And how great Your affections are for me.

Pre-Chorus:

And oh, how He loves us so,

Oh how He loves us,

How He loves us so

Chorus 1:

Yeah, He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves.

Yeah, He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves.

Verse 2:

We are His portion and He is our prize,

Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,

If grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking.

So Heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss (this is McMillan's original lyric as he wrote and sings it as well as Kim Smith, Misty Edwards & Kari Jobe's performed covers.)

So Heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss (this is David Crowders modification with McMillan's permission)

And my heart turns violently inside of my chest,

I don’t have time to maintain these regrets,

When I think about, the way…

Chorus 2:

He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh how He loves.

Yeah, He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves.

Chorus 3:

Cause He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us.

Oh! how He loves us.

Oh! how He loves.

Yeah, He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves us,

Oh! how He loves

You're*** And it is Sloppy Wet Kiss. The original writer, John Mark Mcmillan, wrote it that way.
