lyrics

I can feel your love holding onto me
it's the only life I have it's the only thing I need
it seeps into my skin to quench my tired soul
and permeates inside into the marrow of my bones

so open up my eyes and peel these scales away
you will not be undone and you will not wash away
nothing else will last when this world is gone
nothing but your love God

nations fall kings are slain
all thrones give way but your love remains
the earth may tremble and the heavens shake
but through the ages your love remains

I won't waste my days holding onto dust
or chasing after the wind when I can have your love
I've searched the whole damn world but I've only come up dry
cause only you give life and only your love satisfies

you're good
so good to me
even when I doubt you
even when I deny
even when I curse you
even when I run

blood may spill and wars may rage
and armies conquered but your love remains
the sea may dry and the stars may fade
but through the ages your love remains
