The Power Of A Great Affection

I cannot explain the ways of love Life cannot explain the grace of kindness There's no reason that can satisfy enough The healing of this blindness I've been seized by the power of a great affection I've been seized by the power of a great affection And even in the days when I was young There seemed to be a song beyond the silence The feeling in my bones was much too strong To just deny it. I can't deny this I've been seized by the power of a great affection Seized by the power of a great affection Now this is the theme of my song Now I must forgive as I am forgiven And even when the shadows are long I will sing about the Son that's risen That His kingdom has no end And His kingdom has no end I will praise Him for the fields of green and gold I will praise Him for the roar of many waters I will praise Him that the secret things of old Are now revealed to sons and daughters I've been seized by the power of a great affection I've been seized by the power of a great affection So Father I will give You thanks and praise The Son has opened wide the gate of glory He declared your mighty love and gave His grace And I will tell his story It is my story I've been seized by the power of a great affection Seized by the power of a great affection Now this is the theme of my song Now I will forgive as I'm forgiven And even when the shadows are long I will sing about the Son that's risen That his kingdom has no end His kingdom has no end His kingdom has no end His kingdom has no end His kingdom has no end
