Sure as the Dawn

this song is one of my most favoritest songs ever! it is written by a friend of mine, Paul Keew. you can check out his other songs at his site, www.watchsong.com. they are all incredible and have all been a blessing to me. this song is taken from the book of Hosea. the chorus is Hosea 6:3, the name of this blog. when i created the blog, this is the song that was in my head as i wrote in the name.  it is so amazing that God's love is "as sure as the dawn".

Sure As the Dawn 

Lord, I am amazed 

That the God of all grace 

Would shine down His love 

From the heavens above 

On this unfaithful race. 

For Jesus the Lamb 

Has atoned for our sin; 

All glory and honor 

Be unto the Father, 

And be unto Him! 

Chorus: 

As sure as the dawn  

Is Your unfailing love; 

As sure as the rain in the springtime 

That showers the earth from above! 

For Jesus the Son 

Died to make me His own. 

And nothing can take me away from His love; 

It's as sure as the dawn. 

Lord, I am a man, 

And my love's like the dew; 

As soon as the sun  

Has dried all my resolve, 

Then I turn it from You. 

I remember the day 

When You made my heart yearn; 

For Jesus, the husband 

That I didn't want 

And could never deserve.  

Bridge: 

And none of the good that I've ever done 

Could merit the favor of Your Holy One. 

This love is a gift that He bought with His life, 

And all who believing receive Him will find... 

(Chorus)
