The Lyrics
Verse 1
I keep finding mercy in the life you live, In the front porch after sunset, In the small things heaven notices, In the love that made a home. This valentine's day feels like a doorway, Not just a date we pass through. I thank God for all the mercy That has gently gathered you.
Chorus
So here is The Greatest of These, A blessing wrapped in melody. 1 Corinthians 13:13 is the reference near it, Pointing back to God's own peace. For every prayer and every morning, For every road He brought you through, I give thanks with all my heart today: Grace keeps shining here in you.
Verse 2
There is joy in homecoming peace, There is faith in how you stay. There is kindness in the ordinary That has marked you day by day. When the plans were bright and easy, When the path had turns unknown, Love kept finding words of blessing, And God kept making goodness known.
Chorus
