In the whole universe there could never be

One who loves me as much as you,,

Noone would sacrifice his only son

to reach out to someone like me.

For we didn't know that we needed salvation

Until you made it clear in our hearts,

yet you died and willingly gave yourself

To be a bridge from heaven to earth.

One may die for someone beloved

One might sacrifice oneself for a friend,

but you gave your life to those who rejected you

And suffered for a world who didn't care.

And you reached out to me when I was a child

In a way that I could understand,

You were my friend when I was most in need

And you taught me how to live and love.

And now you are so much dearer to me

Than I ever could have imagined!

You are the very reason I get up each day,

You are my guide and my hope.

And in you I find such certainty

That tomorrow will be a better place,

And in you I find more love than I could dream of,

Love that will stay with me always.

And so I thank you Jesus for all that you've done,

And all that you are doing for me,

And for your love and your gift of new life

That is totally transforming me.

In the whole universe there could never be found

Another one like you,

For you created everything that exists

And show your love to people like me.
