Passion
Hillsong Young & Free Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In the grove, when your cup seemed too much
With the worst yet to come
I was on your mind
On the cross, as the crowds cursed your name
Heaven's eyes turned away
Still you thought of me

I know you love me so

Through it all, you were thinking of me
Even death couldn't keep all your love for me
But you died, so that I could have life
There's no greater love than this

I know you love me so
I know you love me so

Your love is still the same
Beginning and forever
I sing of all your passion won for me
I sing of all your love first done in me
Your love will never change
Beginning and forever
I sing of all your passion won for me
I sing of all your love first done in me

I found you
I found you
I found you
I found you
I found you
I found you

You're brighter than the sun
Risen from the shadows
Seated on the throne of majesty
Higher than the skies and all the sea

You're brighter than the sun
Risen from the shadows
Seated on the throne of majesty
Higher than the skies and all the sea

I found you
I found you
I found you
I found you
I found you
I found you

I love you
I love you
I love you
I love you




I love you
I love you

Your greatness extends beyond the heavens and oceans

In the grove, when your cup seemed too much
With the worst yet to come

On the cross, as the crowds cursed your name
Heaven's eyes turned away
Still you thought of me

I know you love me so

Through it all, you were thinking of me
Even death couldn't keep all your love for me
But you died, so that I could have life
There's no greater love than this

I know you love me so [x2]
