HYMN | As Gentle as Silence
O the love of my Lord is the essence
This is a hymn that I hold very dear to my heart. It reminds me about the unconditional nature of Jesus; even in my many failings and weaknesses, rebellion or straying, He does not change. This song explores the theme of God’s love for mankind and the bounty of His mercy.
May it bless you.

Lyrics:
O the love of my Lord is the essence
Of all that I have here on earth
All the beauty I see, He has given to me
And His giving is as gentle as silenceEvery day, every hour, every moment
Has been blessed by the strength of His love
At the turn of each tide, He is there at my side
And His touch is as gentle as silenceThere’ve been times when I've turned from His presence
And I've walked other paths, other ways
But I've called on His name, in the dark of my shame
And His mercy was as gentle as silence
