Steemit Open Mic Week 78 - "How He Loves Us", with Steem-Music founder @calebleejl!
Had a great time hanging out with @calebleejl's family after work last night. So, Caleb was suggesting why not make an entry for Steemit Open Mic. Aha! How come I didn't think of that. Haha 😄
I randomly picked a 4 chords song, so that its easier for both of us to prepare in such short time. Its also my first time entering this contest, and I didn't know today is the deadline. So I had to quickly draft a post today. 😄
This is a song about how much God adores & loves us. :) I always love the line.. "If grace is an ocean, we're all sinking"... It always wow-ed me...the descriptive language the songwriter used... so beautiful and true! ❤
Hope you are blessed by the song. Happy Good Friday everyone! :)
"How He Loves Us", by John Mark McMillan
He is jealous for me
Love's like a hurricane, and I am a tree
Bending beneath the weight of His wind and mercy
When all of a sudden, I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory
And I realize just how beautiful you are and how great your affections are for me.
And oh How He loves us oh
Oh how He loves us how He loves us oh
We are His portion and He is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in his eyes
If grace is an ocean, we're all sinking
So heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets
when I think about the way

Wow! I m totally blown away. You sang with so much conviction and together with @calebleejl's piano accompaniment, it's hard not to be moved by it. Kudos to you! Hope you win!
It's hard not to sing with conviction when He has showered His love to my life over and over again in the past years. Thank you for listening @karinzdailygrind! This is indeed a beautiful song :)
Praise God! May He continue to use you mightily as you exercise your gift and talent for the extension of His kingdom. God bless!
Amen! That's one of my prayer for myself too. Thanks Karin! :)
I think I recall you mentioning that you play an instrument right? ;)
Donkey years ago, my piano teacher used to place an orange below my palm so I could train my fingers to glide gracefully on the piano keyboard. These days, my fingers are trained to rapidly fire away on my computer keyboard as I race against the Most Dangerous Writing App to complete my blog post
hahaha! I never actually used an orange! maybe should try one day. with the piano at home now can afford to practice more. 🤞🏼
I’m amazed at how you all can use the Most Dangerous App! I read the description also think twice. and ended up not downloading. hahaha!
Haha...don't let the name of the app fool you. Go ahead and give it a try and pretty soon, you will get addicted to it
Perfect for Easter :) @calebleejl I want spaghetti!
can. wait for you only mah. you very busy man :)
Happy Good Friday to both of you! @zord189 @calebleejl
