Love's Fount:
When God loses a child...
My baby's not an "angel," though
she's in God's skies above~
An angel is God's helper,
but not His child He loves.
What an amazing miracle,
that God makes us His child...
To love her M-O-R-E than I could love ~
I-n-c-o-n-c-e-i-v-a-b-l-y wild!
And yet, if God loves us that much ~
as deep-wide-high His love,
that means His grief goes deeper still
than ocean's depths from skies above.
How can God function with such grief?!
My eyes tear up at such...
If He loves e-a-c-h and e-v-e-r-y child,
His tears must fill oceans with such!
If God loved us so, to give His Child,
How can I doubt His love?
Between Jesus' blood and God's tears,
Love p-o-u-r-s from skies above!
If loss of my child rips my heart out,
God's tears for e-a-c-h child of His
must fill Love's oceanic fount!

O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus!
Selah
Sung by
Todd Smith, a grieving father,
and
Nicol Sponberg, a grieving mother
O the deep, deep love of Jesus!
Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free;
Rolling as a mighty ocean
In its fullness over me,
Underneath me, all around me,
Is the current of Thy love;
Leading onward,
Leading Homeward
To Thy glorious rest Above.
O the deep, deep love of Jesus!
Spread His praise from shore to shore;
How He loveth, ever loveth,
Changeth never, nevermore;
How He watches o'er His loved ones,
Died to call them all His own;
How for them He intercedeth,
Watcheth o'er them from the Throne.
O the deep, deep love of Jesus!
'Tis a Heaven of heavens to me
and it lifts me up to Glory
for it lifts me up to Thee.
