This Love
Joyous Celebration Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Eyes can't see the way You hold me
Or how I'm hidden in Your heart
Minds don't know all that You've told me
Or how I ache for where You are
It's invisible to the world
Incredible to the angels
Not since Eden have they seen this sight
Everlasting life

All over
You are around, you are
Inside
This is life, this is life.

Eyes can't see the way You hold me
Or how I'm hidden in Your heart
Minds don't know all that You've told me
Or how I ache for where You are
It's invisible to the world
Incredible to the angels
Not since Eden have they seen this sight
Everlasting life
All over
You are around, you are
Inside
This is life, this is life.
(Modulate) All over
You are around, you are
Inside
This is life, this is life.

I come in empty
I leave filled
Bring my sickness
I leave healed

Broken-hearted
You mend every piece
Come entangled
I leave free

All over
You are around, you are
Inside
This is life, this is life.

All over
You are around, you are
Inside
This is life, this is life.

All over
You are around, you are
Inside
This is life, this is life.

To come in empty
But every time you fill me
I bring my sickness
I leave healed
When I'm broken hearted
You mend every piece




I come entangled by the enemy
But I leave free
