Song for You
Jenny Tyler Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My voice you didn't know, didn't know
I called you had to go, had to go
Back to your little world
Where nothing is strange

You set out on your own, on your own
You said, I'm heading home, heading home
Back to the life you know
Neatly arranged

I have done for you
Everything my love
Hear my song for you
I will not hold my tongue

It's late, you're getting cold, getting cold
You try to keep warm, but you're alone, you're alone
The dark streets are empty now, and the wind starts to blow

I have done for you
Everything my love
Hear my song for you
I will not hold my tongue
Open your heart, open your heart
For I have loved you from the start

I will never harm you
I will never harm you
I will never harm you
I will never harm you, come my love
I will never harm you, (come my love)
I will never harm you, (come my love)
So come (I will never harm you)
So come (I will never harm you)
So come (I will never harm you)
So come (I will never harm you)

I have done for you
Everything my love
Hear My song for you
I will not hold my tongue
Open your heart, open your heart
For I have loved you




Open your heart, open your heart
For I have loved you from the start

I am crying as I write this because I desperately needed to hear this. I've been struggling with remembering how deeply God loves me and this song...just brings me to tears because I hear God singing this to me, begging me to believe Him. Thank you for this amazing song. :) Praise God. :)

@dimplez1ish

The first time I played this video, before reading the Background, I listened to the lyrics as if I had written them. Mesmerized, because this was my own story.... Then as I listened again I realized, "this is Perfect Love, this is better than my own version of love I was offering...this is the Lord song and He's singing it to ME..." I am the one being wooed, someone is pursuing ME, longing for ME..." Veil is lifting! Thank you Jesus! And thanks for posting!

@RetainerBright

I love all their music so incredibly much, and I want to listen to it nonstop. But I have this intense fear of getting tired of their songs. What would I do if that happened? It just...it just can't.

@NWOL
