God Loves Life lyrics

 From the moment of first conception

And His love is without exception 

Rich or poor Big or small 

In love, His Son He gave us

Through Christ, our God has saved us 

Short or tallYoung or old 

In Water and Word He claims us

By the Spirit’s power, He names us 

Shy or bold

Girl or boy 

Now my heart in faith confesses

And each day my life He blesses 

Yellow or red

Black or white 

And when life on earth is ended

And in heaven our life’s extended 

Rich or poorBig or small 

God Loves Life

God Loves Life.

Here is a wonderful life-affirming hymn written and sent to us by Rev. Alan Kornacki, Jr., pastor at St. Peter Lutheran Church, Campbell Hill, Illinois. This hymn would a wonderful addition on Life Sunday—or anytime. 

Before I Formed You in the Womb I Knew You

Before I formed you in the Womb I knew you.
Conceived in sin, My Word of life still drew you.
Bought with a price, you are My holy treasure,
Loved beyond measure.

Lo, your first parents I made in My image,
But through their fall that kinship they did damage.
I made a promise: My Son would redeem them.
Thus I esteem them.

You are a temple of the Holy Spirit.
You are My own; the Kingdom you inherit.
You are My child and I your holy Father—
I and no other.

All life is Mine; I jealously possess it.
I gave you life, and with My Word I bless it.
My Word shall speak to unborn generations
Of their salvation.
