I don't know why but the song, Because You Love Me, sung by Celine Dion many years ago keeps playing in my head. then i realised that it is the kind of love song that I would love to sing to my darling Father in Heaven to thank Him and to praise Him for all the love He has given me and all the amazing things He has blessed me with and done for me. It's like what King Solomon said in 1 Kings 8:23, " O Lord, God of Israel, there is no God like You in Heaven above or on earth below - You who keep Your covenant of love with Your servants who continue wholeheartedly in Your way."
BECAUSE YOU LOVE ME For all those times You stood by me For all the truth that You made me see
For all the joy You brought to my life
For all the wrong that You've made right
For every dream that You made come true
For all the love I've found in You
I'll be forever thankful
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through
Through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best that was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith cos You believed
I'm everything I am
Because You love me
You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand, I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, You gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had Your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day You gave me Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by You
You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining Your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies You were the truth My world is a better place because of You
I'm everything I am because You love me
1 Kings 8: 56 - 62 "Praise be to the Lord, who has given rest to His people Israel just as He promised. Not one word has failed of all the good promises He gave through His servant Moses. May the Lord our God be with us as He was with our fathers; may He never leave us nor forsake us. May He turn our hearts to Him, to walk in all His ways and to keep the commands, decrees and regulations He gave to our fathers. And may these words of mine, which I have prayed before the Lord, be near to the Lord our God day and night, that He may uphold the cause of His servant and the cause of His people Israel according to each day's need, so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the Lord is God and that there is no other. But your hearts must be fully committed to the Lord our God, to live by His decrees and obey His commands, as at this time."
