But God - Larnelle Harris

Abraham and Sarah never thought they'd have a son;
Then descendants came as countless as the stars.
Moses and God's people had nowhere left to run;
Then the waters of the Red Sea stood apart.
So many times the light of hope was setting like the
sun;
And it seemed to the faithful it was over, it was
done.

But God sees some way,

when miracles are well beyond our view.
His Love saves the day, when fear would tell us there
is just no use.
You can look the whole world over for the meaning of it all -
For the purpose that mankind has always sought.
In the end you'll discover, there is no other answer
But God.

I know your heart is breaking the pain just comes in waves.
Everywhere you look it seems like there's no peace.
You try not to give up, but the tears will not relent.
Any minute now you might accept defeat.
And you stand there with impossible, the next word on your lips.
And your vision has been blinded and nothing making sense.

But God sees some way, when miracles are well beyond our view.
His Love saves the day, when fear would tell us there
is just no use.
You can look the whole world over for the meaning of it all -
For the purpose that mankind has always sought.
In the end you'll discover, there is no other answer
But God.
In the end you'll discover, there is no other answer
But God.

 

He Loved Me With a Cross - Larnelle Harris


 

He left a throne in Heaven
To come to Bethlehem
And I will not forget the way
He loved me even then
And everywhere He traveled
He spoke with words of love
That said He'd go to any distance
To show what I was worthy of
And when at last the dusty road
Had turned to Calvary
He picked up a rugged burden
So that one day I would see

 

He loved me with a cross
He loved me with a cross
In answer to the call of love
He loved me with a cross

 

He knew from the beginning
The price He'd have to pay
For my heart had gone so far beyond
What other loves forgave
I wasn't on that hillside
To see Him on the tree
But as my guilt was placed upon Him
I know that somehow He saw me

 

He loved me with a cross
He loved me with a cross
In answer to the call of love
He loved me with a cross

Though I could not imagine what
Loving me would cost
My Jesus went to Calvary
And loved me with a cross

 

And I would be a sinner still
Enslaved by all my sin
If it hadn't been for Jesus
And they way He loved me then

 

He loved me with a cross
He loved me with a cross
In answer to the call of love
He loved me with a cross
Though I could not imagine what
Loving me would cost
My Jesus went to Calvary
And loved me with a cross
