Love Song For A Savior

Album: Jars of Clay (1995)

  • In open fields of wild flowers,
    She breathes the air and flies away
    She thanks her Jesus for the daises and the roses
    In no simple language
    Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all
    He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
    As close a heartbeat or a song on her lips
    Someday she'll trust Him and learn how to see Him
    Someday He'll call her and she will come running
    And fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and she'll pray,

    "I want to fall in love with You"

    Sitting silent wearing Sunday best
    The sermon echoes through the walls
    A great salvation through it calls to the people
    Who stare into nowhere, and can't feel the chains on their souls

    He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
    As close a heartbeat or a song on our lips
    Someday we'll trust Him and learn how to see Him
    Someday He'll call us and we will come running
    And fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and we'll pray,

    "I want to fall in love with You"

    It seems too easy to call you "Savior",
    Not close enough to call you "God"
    So as I sit and think of words I can mention
    To show my devotion

    "I want to fall in love with You"

    "my heart beats for You" Writer/s: CHARLIE LOWELL, DAN HASELTINE, MATTHEW RYAN BRONLEEWE, STEPHEN DANIEL MASON
