What Love Is This
Kari Jobe Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You never change, you are the god you stay a while
When I'm afraid you calm and still my beating heart
You stay the same, when hope is just a distant thought
You take my pain and you lead me to the cross

What love is this , that you gave your life for me
And made a way for me to know you
And I confess you're always enough for me you're all I need

I look to you, I see the scars upon your hands
And hold the truth that when I can't you always can
I'm standing here beneath the shadow of the cross,
I'm overwhelmed that I keep finding up that ours

What love is this that you gave your life for me
And made a way for me to know you
And I confess, you're always enough for me you're all I need

Jesus in your suffering you were reaching your thought of me
Jesus in your suffering you were reaching your thought of me

What love is this, that you gave your life for me
And made a way for me to know you
And I confess, you're always enough for me
You're all I need

What love is this, that you gave your life for me
And made a way for me to know you
And I confess, you're always enough for me




Always enough for me
Always enough for me

Jesus didn't come just to give us a ticket to heaven, He came to establish His Kingdom on earth and restore the relationship that Adam and Eve lost in the Garden of Eden. The more we get to know Him through our relationship with Him, the more we grow in the image of Christ and the better we represent Him on earth.
He also gave us His Spirit, the Holy Spirit (the helper, comforter, and advocate) to help us. True Christianity is all about relationship with God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Otherwise it's just another religion that's meaningless and powerless.


1“Not everyone who calls me ‘Lord, Lord’ will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only those who do what my Father in heaven wants them to do. 22When the Judgment Day comes, many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord! In your name we spoke God's message, by your name we drove out many demons and performed many miracles!’ 23 Then I will say to them, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you wicked people!’
John 17
“Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. 26 I have made you[e] known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.”
John 14
But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

Tu és o mesmo
O Deus fiel que nunca mudou
Se tenho medo
Meu coração vens acalmar

Inabalável se a esperança em mim faltar
A minha cura em tua cruz vou encontrar

Que amor é esse
Que deu a sua vida por mim
E abriu um novo e vivo caminho
Eu reconheço
Tu és suficiente pra mim
Tudo para mim

Eu posso ver
As marcas em teus pés e mãos
Eu posso crer
Me suprirás com teu poder

Estou aqui, maravilhado ao pé da cruz
Vejo a Ti, teus braços nunca se fecharam

Que amor é esse
Que deu a sua vida por mim
E abriu um novo e vivo caminho
Eu reconheço
Tu és suficiente pra mim
Tudo para mim

Jesus em tua morte
Tu pensavas sempre em mim (2x)

This song brings tears to my eyes. I was saved at the age of 8 but never fully acknowledged Christ until I turned 16. I am now 28 and still keeping the faith. The church that I attend hosted a praise and worship service tonight and they sang this beautiful beautiful song. I sat and wept. I love you, Lord. I am so blessed to be a christian. Thank you for choosing me and for the gift of salvation. I can't imagine life without you. ❤️

For me Kari Jobe is the most efficient Gospel singer, I always get blessed when I listen to her music. She just reminds me that GOD is always with me, He will never leave me.

When you have gratitude for the Savior and you are full of his grace, there is nothing more you need. when you feel that everyone has turned their back on you, the saviour never will...
