were the whole realm of nature mine
that were an offering far too small
love so amazing, so divine
demands my soul, my life, my all


today I am looking to Lent as a chance to soak in the brilliance of the hugeness of the Love that sent Jesus up a hill, cross on his back, to claim victory for the whole realm of nature
and even if it were mine to give, the whole realm could never equal that love
love so amazing
love divine
freely given
that.much.love
