Launched with Love

"Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.... We love Him, because He first loved us" (1 John 4:10,19).

Our world has been invaded
By a love that's not like ours.
God came to earth and traded
His majesty for scars.

He loved us to the very end,
Though we gave Him no good reason.
He came to be the closest Friend
To a world that gave Him treason.

Now praise the Lord for faithful love
Unhindered by our hate,
That launched His mission from above
To save us from our fate!
