Reckless Love Lyrics

Before I spoke a word, You were singing over me
You have been so, so good to me
Before I took a breath, You breathed Your life in me
You have been so, so kind to me

O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
O, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
And I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God

When I was Your foe, still Your love fought for me
You have been so, so kind to me
When I felt no worth, You paid it all for me, yeah
You have been so, so kind to me

O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
O, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
And I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God

No shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
No wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me
No shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
No wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me
No shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
No wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me
No shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
No wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me!

O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
O, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
And I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God!

If I make my bed in the depths You're there
If I rise on the wings of the dawn and settle on the far side of the sea
You're there, You're there
You're chasing us down
Yes, You are, yes, You
You always have

No shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
No wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me
No shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
No wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me
No shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
No wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me
No shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
No wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me!...

O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
O, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
And I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
O, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God!
