How He Loves

How He Loves (Single Version)A Christian contemporary song by John Mark McMillan. It speaks about the love that that God has for us, which eclipses all the pain and affliction we will face in this life. More personally, it was written at a time when the composer's good friend had passed away in a tragic car accident, and he was grappling with his faith and God's plan in all this.

And Romans 5:8 gives us a glimpse of the love God has for us - that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. And it was a death once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous to bring us to God (1 Peter 3:18). The way that He loves takes the initiative because we can never save ourselves while dead in our sins. The way that He loves reaches out His hand of grace and mercy to redeem us even when we do not deserve it. The way that He loves put Jesus on the cross for our sins, that we might have a new relationship with God. Oh how He loves us all!

Hi Graham,

Thanks for sharing the song and tabs. I think on the PDF you either double typed the Dsus(1)D(1), or the four chords (Dsus D Dsus D) should all be using the 2nd strumming pattern. Just noticed that when I am trying to go through the song. God bless!

Aloha,
Will

Hi Will! Thanks for pointing that out. I do make mistakes now and then. Have changed the pdf :)

Will said...

You're welcome! So here are a couple other things I noticed: 1) The 2nd line of Verse 1 should be "Love's...", right? 2) And after Verse 2 should it be "Bridge (x2)" instead of "Chorus (x2)"?

Much thanks,
Will

Graham Choo said...

Hi Will, I think the "Loves" is correct as it is because "He loves like a..."
I'll change the Chorus (x2) to Bridge (x2). You're correct! Thanks :)

Hello Graham...
Is there any way you can post the chords/tabs to the 2nd guitar that you actually play in the song?
Thanks.

Graham Choo said...

Hey there,

The tabs for the parts I'm playing (on the left) are given in the post above. It's separated by the words "OR". Hope that help! :)
