I heard your echo in the canyon upon the timberline You said these mountains were your invention And so was this heart of mine I heard you whisper on the water, there on the mighty sea You spoke of love deep as the ocean When You spoke of Your love for me I am loved by the Father I am loved by the Son It is love that has captured The heart of this wayward one I heard your laughter in the sunrise, amidst the morning birds A song of freedom for all creation And you sang me every word I heard you singing in the silence, a simple melody Words of love, O I can hear it My Father is very fond of me
