Your love is extravagant
Your friendship it is intimate
I feel like moving to the rythm of your grace
Your fragrance is intoxicating in a secret place


Spread wide in the arms of Chist is the love that covers sin
No greater love have I ever known
You considered me your friend
And captured my heart again


Your love is extravagant
Your friendship it is intimate

My favorite part is: "spread wide in the arms of Christ is the love that covers sin." HE COVERED MY SIN!!!! One of my favorite quotes from C.S. Lewis sums it up best:

"Christ died for men precisely because men are not worth dying for; to make them worth it."

Because of Christ and His "extravagent love" ... we're worth it.

"God has [not] arbitrarily made us such that He is our only good. Rather God is the only good of all creatures. God gives what He has, not what He has not: He gives the happiness that there is, not the happiness that is not. To be God―to be like God and to share His goodness in creaturely response―to be miserable―these are the only three alternatives.
If we will not learn to eat the only food the universe grows―the only food that any possible universe ever can grow―then we must starve eternally." Lewis
