Before there was anything   I loved you endlessly   There are no words   To make way for this truth   This love for you inside of Me      And if I paint a sky with bronze   Or blanket you with stars   It’s not enough to prove to you   This love inside My heart      What if I knit you together   Inside your mother with artistry?   Crafted in My very image   Because I need you here with Me      What if I gave everything   Just to have you close to Me?   What if My love was the only truth   Would you believe it could set you free?      There isn’t anything   That you could ever do   Not death or life   Not depth or height   Can ever take My love from you      There is no greater love than this   That a man should lay   His life down for his friends   And though I already have   I’d do it all again      Regenerative are My bones and My skin   My nerves are dismayed by intrusion   Yet if you are gone for short or for long   It all aches with no sought restitution      I would do anything for you   It’s obvious and in plain view   Like the life that I’ve laid before you   Everything that I’ve done is for you      So look for me with open eyes   Knock and I will open the door   I have loved you before there was time   And I will love you forevermore
