How He Loves – John Mark McMillan
[Verse]
[C]He is jealous for me,
[Am7]Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
[G]Bending beneath the weight of his wind and [Fmaj7]mercy.
[C]When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these [Am7]afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I [G]realize just how beautiful You are,
And how [Fmaj7]great Your affections are for me.
[Pre-Chorus]
And [C]oh, how He loves us [Am7]oh
Oh how He [G]loves us,
How He loves us [Fmaj7]all
[Instrumental]
[C] [Am7] [G/C] [Fmaj7]
[Verse]
[C]He is jealous for me,
[Am7]Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
[G]Bending beneath the weight of his wind and [Fmaj7]mercy.
[C]When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these [Am7]afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I [G]realize just how beautiful You are,
And how [Fmaj7]great Your affections are for me.
Oh, how He loves, yeah
[Chorus]
He [C]loves us,
Oh how He [Am7]loves us,
Oh how He [G]loves us,
Oh how He [Fmaj7]loves.
[Verse]
[C]We are His portion and He is our prize,
[Am7]Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
[G]If grace is an ocean, we’re all [Fmaj7]sinking.
[C]So Heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss,
[Am7]And my heart turns violently inside of my chest,
[G]I don’t have time to maintain these regrets,
[Fmaj7]When I think about, the way…
[Chorus]
Yeah, He [C]loves us,
Oh how He [Am7]loves us,
Oh how He [G]loves us,
Oh how He l[Fmaj7]oves.
Yeah, He [C]loves us,
Oh how He [Am7]loves us,
Oh how He [G]loves us, Oh how He [Fmaj7]loves us oh. [C]
