God's Heart - before the foundation of the world YOU were marked out

A wonderful song we learned in the winter school of the truth regarding the Lord's love and selection of us - it is His mercy and His love, to choose us, select us, love us, and eventually make us the same as He is. There is nothing so high in this universe than giving ourselves for what is on His heart!

D G

1. Have you realized before the foundation of the world

D A

You were marked out?

D G

You cannot escape God’s hand,

D Em A

Even though you’ve tried a number of times.

G A

The more you try, the stronger He grasps you,

Bm E

Wherever you go, He is there!

D G D G

Oh we’ll never rest, ’till we love Him the best,

D G-A D

This lovely One—has us in His heart

2. It is also by Your mercy we’ve seen

Something so deep in Your heart

You came to earth and sold all You had

To buy this great pearl of worth.

Oh save me Lord, from chasing vanity,

From selfish dreams, from all that’s binding me—

There’s nothing so high, in this universe

As giving ourselves—for what’s on in Your heart.

3. You have purposed in time that You’ll build Your church

That nothing prevails over her.

As we flee to meet with the saints,

You’re building Christ into our hearts.

Oh this is not an outward activity!

A meaningful life, one day all men will see—

Oh Lord stir our hearts, to never depart,

To give all we are—for Christ and the church.

Enjoy the song, and.... :) let us love the Lord more! We are on His heart, He loves us, and now - He is in our heart and we love Him + give ourselves to Him and the church!
