STORY BEHIND THE SONG

 

Several months before we started recording Miracle, Taylor Johnson sent me the riff that became the intro for this song, and I was absolutely sure this would be the opening piece to this album - even before we had a song to go with it. I wrote most of the lyrics on the 4th floor tower at Blue Rock Studios overlooking the hills of the Texas hill country. The force and wonder of God's love seem to have many parallels in the nature surrounding me. From the setting sun to the stars spreading across the night's sky, this song was one that quickly wrote itself and became "Love Invades."

(lyrics)

Your love invades | I’m amazed | At all the ways You love me | Like the stars, too numerous to claim | You shine so very far


Oh, love invade | Uncontained | Surround me in the morning | Like the dawn | Too luminous to gaze | I yield to who You are | ’Cause there is no denying You


Here we go, here we go | We believe it | Here we go | Raise your voice now, and sing it | For love, for love | We will praise


Your love invades | I can’t escape | All the ways You love me | You remain, no matter what I’ve done | You always stay the same


There is no denying You | There is no denying You | Oh, You

 

Here we go, here we go | We believe it | Here we go | Raise your voice now, and sing it | For love, for love | We will praise


Oh, here we go | For the hope | We believe it | Here we go | All we know is to sing it | For love, for love | We will praise


In the dark of night | You invite the moon to fly | And the stars, they climb | In the break of day | Night is slowly giving way | Tell the sun to rise | In the evening calm | You’re painting with the setting sun | My heart stops | I am listening | In the stillness here | Everything is coming clear | I hear You clear | We can hear You clear


We will praise You | We will praise You
