Words / Music by Keri Jacobs
When my daughter, Noely, was in the hospital, I read to her from Romans
8 and set these verses to music. In the midst of her pain, my prayer was that she would have comfort and assurance from the
promises of God. Now my prayer is that the song would comfort others as well. I thank Esther Galletta for being a help and
support (and tutor!) for Noely as she was recovering. I also thank the Robinsons for their friendship, prayers and support...
Romans 8:28: "And we know that in all
things, God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." Lastly,
I thank Nurse Terry and the staff of Childrens Hospital. - Keri
What can ever separate us from the love of Christ?
Nothing ever can separate us from the love of
Christ.
Can trouble or trials or pain or persecution?
Can hunger or cold, or danger of death?
Our fears of today, or worries
of tomorrow;
In all these things we are more than conquerors.
Nothing ever can separate us from the love of Christ.
Yet what we suffer now is nothing compared
to the glory we will share in later on.
If
God is for us, who can ever be against us?
He did not spare His Son, but gave Him for us all.
Nothing
ever can separate us from the love of Christ.
What can ever separate us from the love of Christ?
Nothing
ever can separate us from the love of Christ.
Not death or life or angels or demons;
Nothing high above or in the deepest
depths
Our present, our future, nor all of creation;
Nor the powers of hell can keep His love from us.
Nothing ever
can separate us from the love of Christ.
