892 Those Who God Will Save Are Foremost in His Heart
Verse 1
How significant is God’s saving work,
more important than all other things to Him.
With purposed plans and will, not just thoughts and words,
He does everything for all mankind.
Oh, how significant it is, God’s saving work,
for both man and Himself.
Verse 2
How busy God is, what effort He makes.
He manages His work, rules all things, all people.
Never seen before, at so great a price.
In His work, God reveals to man bit by bit
what God is and has, the price He’s paid,
wisdom, power, all His disposition.
Chorus
No matter how hard the work, no matter what obstacles,
no matter how weak and rebellious man is,
nothing can stop God, nothing’s too hard,
nothing’s too hard.
Verse 3
How close is God, what intimacy
for the ones He chooses to manage and save.
In this universe, who else ever had
such an intimate relationship with God?
In His heart, they are most important
and He values them above all.
Verse 4
How they hurt God, how they disobey.
Even though He’s paid such a great price for them,
tirelessly God works, no complaints, no regrets,
knowing someday humans will be moved by His words.
They’ll wake up to His call,
recognize Him Lord of all, return to His side.
Chorus
No matter how hard the work, no matter what obstacles,
no matter how weak and rebellious man is,
nothing can stop God, nothing’s too hard,
nothing’s too hard.
Wow, wow, wow, wow. Wow, wow, wow, wow.
