Verse 1:
I was lost
I was in chains
The world had a hold of me
My heart was a stone
I was covered in shame
When He came for me
Pre-Chorus:
I couldn't run, couldn't run from His presence
I couldn't run, couldn't run from His arms
Chorus:
Jesus, He loves me, He loves me, He is for me
Jesus, how can it be, He loves me, He is for me
Verse 2;
And it was a fire
Deep in my soul
I'll never be the same
I stepped out of the dark
And into the light
When He called my name
Pre-Chorus:
I couldn't run, couldn't run from His presence
I couldn't run, couldn't run from His arms
Chorus:
Jesus, He loves me, He loves me, He is for me
Jesus, how can it be, He loves me, He is for me
Bridge:
He holds the stars and He holds my heart
With healing hands that bear the scars
The rugged cross where He died for me
My only hope, my everything
Chorus:
Jesus, He loves me, He loves me, He is for me
Jesus, how can it be, He loves me, He is for me
Outro:
He loves me (x4)
He is for me
He loves me
My God is amazing
Jesus loves me
