A while ago I was writing a poem about how much I love the Lord and in my heart I instantly heard Him respond that He loves me too. Like when a child tells her daddy she loves him and he responds immediately saying "I love you too." Well I can tell you I was so overwhlemed by His instant reponse I was almost unable to breathe and I had no words to express how I felt and I longed for a way to tell how that moment in time felt. It was only an instant but I felt like I was frozen in time, unable to move, so caught up in His overwhleming love. And today I was listening to some good old Josh Groban while I was busy working and I found myself in the presence of the Lord once again and I couldn't help but cry cause the song that was playing was exactly a description of how I felt that day when I heard Him say "I love you". You know how you felt the first time you fell in love - multiply that by a ten thousand, no, one hundred thousand!! The song goes like this:
When you say you love me
Like the sound of silence calling
I hear your voice and suddenly I'm falling
Lost in a dream...
Like the echos of our souls are meeting
You say those word my heart stops beating
and I wonder what it means...
What could it be
That comes over me?
At times I can't move
At times I can hardly breath...
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment there's no-one else alive...
You're the one I've always thought of
I don't know why but I feel sheltered in your love
You're where I belong.
And when you're with me if I close my eyes
There are times I swear I feel like I can fly
For a moment in time
Somewhere between, the heavens and earth
Frozen in time, oh when you say those words...
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
For a moment there's no-one else alive...
And this journey that we're on
How far we've come and I celebrate every moment
When you say you love me
That's all you have to say
I'll always feel this way...
When you say you love me
The world goes still, so still inside and
When you say you love me
In that moment I know why I'm alive...
When you say you love me...
When you say you love me
Do you know how I love you...?
A song I have heard so many times before suddenly became the simplest sweetest love song I ever heard....
