Fred Hammond - How Do You Love That Way lyrics

rate me

[Verse 1]

I must have made You cry a million tears

Used enough mercy for a million years

You'd think by now Your grace would disappear

Guess that's why You called it love

You spread Your arms across eternity

You shed Your blood to buy my liberty

You fight for me with all intensity

With an undeniable love

[Chorus]

How do You love that way

I need You to teach me to love that way

Why do You love that way

Whatever You do don't stop

[Verse 2]

Addicted to my selfishness and greed

Thinking my foolishness could meet my need

Pulled up flowers tryin' to make room for weeds

But it doesn't uproot Your love, I'm so crazy

You just correct me-try to slow me down

Rain on me softly when my leaves are brown

Resuscitate me when I hit the ground

So tenacious with Your love

[Chorus x2]

[Bridge]

I wandered and wavered a ship lost at sea

I treated Your mercy so frivolously

Yet an ocean of love You poured over me

Your love won't stop

[Pre-Vamp]

How do You love oh Lord

Will You teach me to love that way

Why do You love

Whatever You do don't stop

[Vamp]

By holding me, oh Lord

You're showing me

By teaching me, oh Lord I plainly see

Your love indeed, it amazes me

Whatever You do don't stop

Why You would smile upon this broken man

It blows my mind I just don't understand

For the love I need is in Your nail-scarred hand

Whatever You do don't stop

[Repeat Vamp-Out]
