Amor Sublime

When I cried in silence, he listened to me
When the burden was heavy, he helped me
When the destiny was dark
And I couldn't find the way
When my foot slipped
He lifted me up

When they turned their backs on me, he loved me
When they closed their doors, he opened them
People pointed at me
While he forgave me
My life meant nothing and he embraced me

Sublime love that came down from heaven
That died to give me life
Eternal love that came into my life
That silently endured the cross
Oh Jesus, what sublime love

I was just a stone and he chose me
And in his necklace of a thousand pearls he carried me
I lived the old story
Of that shepherd in the night
Who was missing a sheep and searched for me
He searched for me, he searched for me
