Long before I was ever formed in my mother's womb You knew and loved me Then You came and You rescued me showed me the truth Of what my life could be
Now when I try to explain all the joy all the love I'm feelingÂ… Feeling in my heart I start thinking about who You are
[Chorus] Words like cherish come to mind Every time that I'm reminded how You set me free And just how much You love me Words like mercy and grace Bring a smile to my face I know that there is nothing that could ever keep us apart Because I know I hold A special place in Your heart
There were days I was so amazed that I made it thru But You were right there beside me And there were nights when I closed my eyes and I called out to You And Lord You helped me to believe
And when I try to explain all the joy all the love I'm feeling Feeling in my heart I start thinking about who You are
[Bridge] I'll spend my life I'll keep telling the story To everyone who would believe How God would come down From all of His glory Out of love for someone like me
