Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

'Cause your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love, yeah
Your love
Never gives up on me

And it's higher than the mountains that I face
And it's stronger than the power of the grave
And it's constant in the trial and the change
This one thing, remains, yeah yeah

And it's higher than the mountains that I face
And it's stronger than the power of the grave
And it's constant in the trial and the change
This one thing, remains, yeah
This one thing, remains, yeah

'Cause your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love

One and once, come on

On and on and on and on it goes
Yes it overwhelms and satisfies my soul
And I never, ever, have to be afraid
'Cause this one thing remains
This one thing, remains

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me
Your love

In death, in life

In death, in life, and I'm confident
Covered by the power of your great love
My debt is paid, there’s nothing that can
Separate my heart from your great love

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me
Your love

On and on and on and on
On and on and on and on it goes
Yes it overwhelms and satisfies my soul
And I never, ever, have to be afraid
'cause this one thing remains

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me

Your love never fails, never gives up
Never runs out on me
Your love

Oh yes your love
Yes your love
Your love
Your love




Never gives up
Never gives up

You aren't alone. I blamed Him when there was no one to blame in the darkest moments of my life. But He, in His great Mercy loved me anyway, until I could love myself. He is an awesome God.
