Love Song For a Savior


Psalm 45 is a love song written in psalm form addressing God as a king. It shows the love and devotion that the psalmist has for his beloved king. When I read it I was immediately reminded of the song by Jars of Clay called “Love Song for a Savior”, so today, take some time to sit and think about what the psalmist is saying in Psalm 45, but also take some time to read the words of this beautiful song, written by Jars of Clay.


"Love Song For A Savior"


In open fields of wild flowers,

she breathes the air and flies away

She thanks her Jesus for the daises and the roses

in no simple languageSomeday she'll understand the meaning of it all

He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens

As close a heartbeat or a song on her lips

Someday she'll trust Him and learn how to see Him

Someday He'll call her and she will come running

and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and she'll pray,

"I want to fall in love with You"


Sitting silent wearing Sunday best

The sermon echoes through the walls

A great salvation through it calls to the people

who stare into nowhere, and can't feel the chains on their souls

He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens

As close a heartbeat or a song on our lips


Someday we'll trust Him and learn how to see Him

Someday He'll call us and we will come running

and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and we'll pray,


"I want to fall in love with You"


It seems too easy to call you "Savior",

Not close enough to call you "God"

So as I sit and think of words I can mention

to show my devotion


"I want to fall in love with You"


"my heart beats for You"


Are you in love with Jesus Christ? Does your heart beat for him?
