The Way You Love Me

Some people wait a lifetime to be loved
the way you love me,
spending endless days in search of arms
to hold them through the night,
of hands to soothe away the sorrow,
help them face the next tomorrow,
words to promise them that someday
everything will be alright.

The way you love me is beyond my wildest dreams,
your love is deeper than my eyes have ever seen,
and though I don’t deserve to be the one, you chose me
to love the way you love me.

Some people waste their lives and never know
just what they’re missing,
empty shells and broken hearts,
in search of someone to believe.
When they ask me what’s so special in my life,
what’s so terrific,
what I choose to say is simply
what your love’s done in me.

The way you love me is beyond my wildest dreams,
your love is deeper than my eyes have ever seen,
and though I don’t deserve to be the one, you chose me
to love the way you love me.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to be loved not because of anything we've done to deserve it, but just because we are? That would mean we wouldn't have to worry about losing that love. That would mean that no matter how imperfect we were, that love would still be there, as strong as ever.

Well, although it would be really nice to have that with someone, it is not entirely possible with anyone in our lives. As human beings themselves, our loved ones have their own sets of restrictions that keep them from being able to love without any condition whatsoever.

How awesome it is to believe that God loves us that way - that He doesn't have those limitations and that He can love the unlovable not because of who we are but because of who He is!
