I've Always Loved You
by Matthew Parker

Album: Under This Blue Sky

For all time I knew I would create you
That you would laugh and sometimes you would cry
Before the sun was rising in your eastern sky
I planned each day, each moment of your life

And I loved you so much that I gave my life for you
To save you from the power of sin and death
That you might see the awe of all my glory
And sing with joy for all eternity

When trouble comes and storm clouds cover up your sky
And you are tempted to give up the fight
And when your path is darkened you can't see the way
I'll be your strength and ever shining light

I am your deepest friend, I am your saviour
And by my love your spirit is set free
Now you can dance for joy amidst the songs of pain
For your hope is like sunshine in the rain

And when the sun is setting in your western sky
And shadows grown long and death is drawing near
You bow your head and pray, "Lord, you've brought me all this way
Give me strength once more, till I see your awesome face."

And I'll call you home to go in rays of glory
You'll be so awed that you'll fall upon your knees
And when you bow, I'll say, "I've always loved you,
And always will, for all eternity
And always will, for all eternity"
