Song Meaning of “I Love You Lord” by Chris Springer
The song “I love you Lord” by Chris Springer, is an expression of admiration for God’s grace and unconditional love. Throughout the song, Springer paints a vivid picture of the unconditional love oozing from God and speaks from a central and humble place of gratitude.
The opening lines “I love you Lord for you have set me free. You have brought me into the light of eternity” paints a picture of climbing out of the dark depths of despair and how God’s love and grace enables us to enter a brighter and better eternity. The words “You have given hope and joy to me” speaks to the joy and hope that comes with knowing there is a greater power than us guiding us through life.
The chorus “I love you Lord, I love you Lord, I want to thank you for your love that has changed my heart” serves as a powerful reminder for Springer that despite the darkness and darkness of life, God’s love is present and once we open up to it it transforms our lives.
The image of a waterfall serves as a metaphor for God’s love; “The waves of mercy and love are cascading down like a waterfall. I’m standin’ in the rain I can feel it on my face.”
