Song of the Week #6: Your Love Never Fails

It's been a few weeks since I did a Song of the Week post, but here it is!

So, this song has really been resonating with me recently. This past year has been a year of ups and downs. I graduated college with a sweet degree (I mean come on, I want to teach music for a living, how cool is that job going to be.), I interned at my church (One of the most amazing things that I've ever been able to do.), I landed a long term sub position for 5 months because there weren't any full time jobs for me, and well, all of a sudden that job was over. Just like that. I mean, Come on God, why now? I was just getting used to the job and everything that comes with it and you take it away now? Well, in that time, He's been teaching me a lot about His timing and what He wants for my life and so this song has just brought me so much comfort!

"He makes all things, work together for my good." Romans 8:28 (Paraphrased)
"Nothing can separate, even if I run away." Romans 8:38 (Paraphrased)
"Your Love Never Fails." 1 Corinthians 13:8 (Paraphrased)

How amazing are these promises? It's easy for us to feel sorry about our situations, and it's easy for us to let those around us think that we're doing okay with certain things, but why are we being phony? Why do we need to have other's believe that we've got it all together?

We don't need to have it all together, and the sweetest things is that when we don't have it all together these promises are even more comforting!

So, check out this song of the week! It's written by Chris McClarney!


Nothing can separate
Even if I ran away
Your love never fails

I know I still make mistakes
But You have new mercies for me everyday
Your love never fails

Chorus:
You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There maybe pain in the night but joy comes in the morning

And when the oceans rage
I don't have to be afraid
Because I know that You love me
Your love never fails

Verse 2:
The wind is strong and the water's deep
But I'm not alone in these open seas
Cause Your love never fails

The chasm is far too wide
I never thought I'd reach the other side
But Your love never fails

Bridge:
You make all things work together for my good
