Love Beyond Myself

I thought love was just a fleeting fire Burning bright but fading fast But love is more than just desire A vow that holds when storms have passed Not my will but Yours be done Love that gives not just what I want More than feeling more than gain A cross-shaped love that breaks my chains Love is dying to myself Not seeking gain but giving all Not just words but sacrifice A love that never lets me fall Your love rewrites my heart A grace so deep a brand-new start I see the weight You bore for me A crown of thorns love's mystery Not just kindness not just grace But justice met in love's embrace Not my will but Yours be done Love that gives not just what I want More than feeling more than gain A cross-shaped love that breaks my chains Love is dying to myself Not seeking gain but giving all Not just words but sacrifice A love that never lets me fall Your love rewrites my heart A grace so deep a brand-new start Love is patient love is kind Not self-seeking not blind It bears the cost it stands the fight It never leaves it holds the light Oh love beyond what I deserve Not earned not lost forever firm By Your wounds my soul now sings This is love my King of Kings
