Covenant Love

Phil Keaggy


So true to each other, 
So true to the One who they love. 
So true to their Lord who has given them 
Life and joy and peace, deep peace within. 

And although they're mistreated, 
They continue to hold on in faith. 
And they pray for the ones who display 
Such cruelty towards them 
Time and again, without end. 

Covenant love, such a love that He pours out 
Within the hearts of His children. 
Covenant love, in faithfulness 
Unto death their lives are joined as one, as one. 

Models of the Master, 
Living letters they are read by all men. 
They are salt in the Earth, they are light in a 
Dark world of sin, bearing good news of Him. 

Children don't lose heart, 
Your new life He renews day by day. 
Keep your eyes on Eternity, 
For the things that are seen fade away, 
Fade away, fade away 

Covenant love, such a love that He pours out 
Within the hearts of His children. 
Covenant love, in faithfulness 
Unto death their lives are joined as one, as one.
