Grafted in the vine, nourished by the Tree of Life
Echoes from the Word made flesh, illuminates the night
And please remember that I committed long ago
Not just my body but my mind and, yes, my soul
And though you've sinned, I'll never let you go
So keep holdin' on to the cross, keep holdin' on
I love you this much, my child
No matter where you've been or what you've done
I love you this much, my child, it should be plain for you to see
I love you this much, I love you this much
Creative love rebuilds again a world that's lost in sin
A cross replaces loss by lifting up the king
And please remember that I committed long ago
Not just my body but my mind and, yes, my soul
And though you've sinned, I'll never let you go
So keep holdin' on to the cross, keep holdin' on
I love you this much, my child
No matter where you've been or what you've done
I love you this much, my child, it should be plain for you to see
I love you this much, I love you this much
