I’M LEARNING TO BE LOVED

I’m learning to be loved, I’m learning to receive

A love that is unearned, unmerited and free.

This love I can receive not struggling to achieve.

I’m learning to be loved.

I’m learning to be loved, this miracle of grace

That finds me as I am and shows me heaven’s face,

Eyes that see my pain, hands that know my shame.

I’m learning to be loved.

This love that knows no end,

This love that knows no bounds,

This love that reaches out

Before my silent prayers.

This heart of heaven speaks

Of grace that mercy meets

Within this heart of mine,

Within this heart of mine

I’m knocking on the door that opens from inside,

I’m seeking for the truth that alone I cannot find.

A wisdom that is shown, a truth that is made known

I’m learning to be loved.

Dear Geoff,
Thanks for your encouragement. Thinking about it, I'm suprised we have to learn to be loved. Yet if we have learned something else through experience over the years -it is not quite so suprising. I listened to your remix of Power of Your Love - it immediately brought tears to my eyes as I thought of the Shullamite who began with "My beloved is mine and I am His" then ended with "I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine" - such a world of difference between the two.
Thanks
