Incomprehensible Love


I will be the first to admit, that I am not a huge fan of Christian music. I have found a few bands that I really like and some songs that I really like, but overall I listen to a bit of everything. I did however find one song in particular by Third Day that gives me chills. It is a song simply called "Love Song". Now I am sure this song is old and most of you probably already know it or have heard it, but it is new too me. The lyrics literally move me. I listen to it everyday, sometimes multiple times a day, because it reminds me of the unconditional and incomprehensible love Jesus has for us. And it is a love so strong we cannot even wrap our minds fully around it. The lyrics are below.


I've heard it said that a man would climb a mountain
Just to be with the one he loves
How many times has he broken that promise
It has never been done.
I've never climbed the highest mountain
But I walked the hill of Calvary

Just to be with you, I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you, I'd give anything
I would give my life away.

I've heard it said that a man would swim the ocean
Just to be with the one he loves
How may times has he broken that promise
It can never be done
I've never swam the deepest ocean
But I walked upon the raging sea

Just to be with you, I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you, I'd give anything
I would give my life away.

I know that you don't understand
the fullness of My love
How I died upon the cross for your sins
And I know that you don't realize
how much that I gave you
But I promise, I would do it all again.

Just to be with you, I've done everything
There's no price I did not pay
Just to be with you, I gave everything
Yes, I gave my life away.
