Love Magnificent celebrates the love of Jesus. Lyrics inspired by Ephesians 3:18 and Romans 8:37-39
This original composition is inspired by these 2 bible verses: Ephesians 3:18 and Romans 8:37-39.
And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 3:18
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:37-39
It was performed publicly for the first time at the New Creation Church Singapore Christmas Celebration 2015.
Love Magnificent Lyrics
A million stars illuminate the skies As shepherds watched their flock of sheep by night Bethlehem of old, a prophecy foretold There God’s incarnate Word took on flesh A multitude of heavenly host praised God of heaven and earth For unto us is born, the Saviour of the world Love, magnificent love Jesus, You came, You dwelled with us Everlasting God and King Yet You gave Your everything No other worthy of outstanding praise Love, magnificent love Jesus, You said, peace be on earth Star of hope and majesty Yet You came to set me free I love because You first loved me Darkness fell across the barren plain As heaven watched, the Son gave up His strength The innocent became, the Lamb who took my shame No greater love than this for you and me Lord, lead me to realise the depth, width Height and greatness of Your magnificent love Fill my heart with Your love, O Lord Love, magnificent love Jesus, You came, You dwelled with us Everlasting God and King, yet You gave Your everything No other worthy of outstanding praise Love, magnificent love
Jesus, You said, peace be on earth
Star of hope and majesty, yet You came to set me free
I love because You first loved me
I love because You first loved me

A pre-recording of this song was offered as a free download a week or two before Christmas. The interesting bit about this recording is that there are slight differences in the lyrics. There was also a short prayer. Original lyrics posted here.
Can you spot the differences? 😉
