Today, at our annual Good Friday service where three local churches join together to commemorate Christ's sacrifice on the cross, one of the songs our joint worship team sang was Amazing Love. This simple song makes some very personal statements regarding the outcome of Jesus' work.
I'm Forgiven...
I'm accepted...
I'm alive and well...
Each of these statements is juxtaposed with elements of His gift. Respectively:
...because you were forsaken!
...You were condemned!
...Your Spirit is within me, because you died and rose again!!
And the chorus goes on to elaborate on just how "Amazing" God's love for us is.
This is one of my favorite songs in our worship team's repertoire. I like the way we do it, actually, better than Chris Tomlin's original. I think we put a little more "umph" into the very strong statements made in this powerful song. Anyway, I hope you listen to, and enjoy, Chris's inferior version. LOL
