How He Loves Us by The David Crowder Band, Chords, Lyrics and Video

First I would have to note, this is probably my favorite Christian group overall right now. And while there are many great Christian bands it seems right now, these guys are the ones who over and over, song after song, always seem to be able to move my heart to a place of worship. In fact it's gotten to the point, where with every new release I can instantly tell when it's one of their songs simply because of this.

With that said heres a little more about the band:

The David Crowder Band (also known by David Crowder*Band) is a six-piece Christian Modern Worship band from Waco, Texas.

The band began when David Crowder, from Texarkana, Texas, realized that almost half of the students at Baylor University were not attending church, which he found surprising since it is a Christian university. He and Chris Seay started University Baptist Church in Waco, Texas. in 1995 while he was still a student. Crowder led worship there and continued to do so throughout the year. The church's congregation grew, as did the band's lineup. Crowder began writing songs to incorporate into the worship times at the church and eventually the church released an independent CD, Pour Over Me, followed by All I Can Say in 1999.

 Standard Tuning Key of C

VERSE 1:
C
He is jealous for me,
Am
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
G                                          F
Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
C
When all of a sudden,
                      Am
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
      G
And I realize just how beautiful You are,
        F
And how great Your affections are for me. (2nd time - Oh how He Loves)

VERSE 2:
C
We are His portion and He is our prize,
Am
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
G                               F
If grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking.
C
So Heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss,
Am
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest,
G
I don’t have time to maintain these regrets,
F
When I think about, the way…
