Verse 1:
C
He is jealous for me
Am7
Love's like a hurricane, I am a tree

Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.

I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,

And I realize just how beautiful You are,
Fmaj7
And how great Your affections are for me.

Oh, how he loves us so,

Oh, how he loves us,

How he loves us so.

So we are his portion and he is our prize,
Am7
Drawn to redemption by the grace in his eyes,

If grace is an ocean we're all sinking.

And my heart turns violently inside of my chest.

I don't have time to maintain these regrets when I think about the way...
