about

This track, originally conceived as a With Or Without You-style anthem, took the longest to flesh out. It went through several key changes and a dozen re-writes. When I was about half-way done with it, our church was paid a visit by veteran worship writer Brenton Brown who offered some great ideas that really helped the song come into focus. He wound up contributing several lines in verses 2 & 3 and shares writing credit on song.

Personally, it was a real honor to get to work on a song with the guy responsible for the soundtrack to my life for the last decade.

Musically, the song is an exercise in minimalism - a simple 4 chord pattern with lots of instruments barely playing anything at all.

Lyrically, this song is my favorite on the album. The primary idea here is that God's estimation of our value is much more reliable than our own.

lyrics

FOREVER YOURS
by Jeremy Hartshorn & Brenton Brown

Where can I hide that You can’t find me?
Where can I go that You are not?
Where can I run that You can’t catch me?
Lord, Your living in my heart

What can separate me from Your love?
From Your great love…

Forever Yours
Forever Yours
You say I’m Yours
So I am Yours
I’m Yours forever

Why would I let my past define me
When You have made my heart brand new?
Why would I dwell upon my failings
When you say I belong to you?

I am who You say I am
Resurrected, Born again

Forever Yours
Forever Yours
You say I’m Yours
So I am Yours
I’m Yours forever

I am who You say I am (I’m Yours forever)
Resurrected, Born again

Your mercy is my refuge
Your kingdom is my home
Eternal and unchanging
God, I am Yours alone

What can separate me from Your love?
From Your great love…

Forever Yours
Forever Yours
You say I’m Yours
So I am Yours
I’m Yours forever

I am who You say I am (I’m Yours forever)
Resurrected, Born again (I’m Yours forever)
