In Spite of You

You have mocked me, scorned me, spurned me,
You have no regard for me.
You've abandoned all committment,
Broke your word with no remorse.

But in spite of you,
I love you.
Yes, in spite of you,
My love will go with you.
In spite of you,
In spite of you.

I have shown you every mercy,
I have given you my Law.
In you mind you know redemption,
But reject it for your sins.

But in spite of you,
I love you.
Yes, in spite of you,
My love will go with you.
In spite of you,
In spite of you.

In spite of you, I'll loving be.
In spite of you, I'll lovingly
Pick you up, brush you off,
Set your feet upon the rock,
Clean from you the miry clay,
Turn your darkest night to day.

In spite of you, I'll constant be.
In spite of you, I'll constantly
Wash you white, wipe your eyes,
Make you crutches, help you walk,
Introduce you to the Way,
Give to you the grace to stay.

In spite of you,
In spite of sin.
In spite of trials,
In spite of miles.
In spite of dark,
In spite of cold.
In spite of might,
In spite of night.
In spite of you.

His love and faithfulness are really too wonderful for words, aren't they? But what a fantastic job you have done with them here.

I hope you are having a good week.
