THIS SONG IS NOT WHAT YOU THINK.
THIS IS A LULLABY.
A COMFORTING, CALLING, LULLABY
FROM GOD... TO YOU.
Song Story: THE LYRICS:
YES. In case you were wondering, the idea for the song came after I happened to see a commercial for a movie with the line that begins this song. God can use anything to inspire us with parables about His Deep Love:)
This was one of my earliest songs, written ten months after God's first song gift to me of "Above My Sorrow Sea." And, like that one -- God gave me the ideas for the music as well as the lyrics within hours.
And -- like for many songs, I deliberately threw in some *really* unexpected melody notes for the drama and to make the song "different". Another idea from God's Creative Spirit, I do believe.

LYRICS

VERSES 1 and 2. A PRAYER FROM GOD TO YOU:
I know what you did last summer. I know what you did last fall.
I know what you did just last week. And I love you DESPITE it all.
I saw when you hurt that person. I heard all those words you said.
I feel all the pain you cause others AND YOURSELF, and I love you DESPITE it all.
CHORUS
Why is it so hard for you to understand,
I HATE when you think ways that I never planned.
I HATE all the times I've called, but you just ran.
I HATE your mean words said to others AND you.
I HATE all the self-centered hurts that you do.
BUT
still I will NEVER hate you.
I LOVE you despite all you do and say.
I LOVE you and yearn for the day.....
you believe.... my Promise:
I LOVE YOU DESPITE.
VERSES 3 and 4. God's prayer to you continues:
I know when you try and give up.
I know when you don't do your best.
I know all you think you can hide from your God, Still I
love you just like the rest.
I know why you're scared you'll fail Me.
I know why you're scared you'll fail you.
Still I'll love you through ALL you do,
ALL you say,
ALL your
life, I promise I'll be true to you. --GOD
CHORUS <summary from above>
Why is it so hard for you to understand,... BUT still I will NEVER hate you.
I LOVE you despite all you do and say. I LOVE you and yearn for the day.....
you believe.... my Promise: I LOVE YOU DESPITE. [signed, GOD]
