I heard your echo in the canyon
Up on the timberline
You said these mountains were your invention
And so was the 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

And I am loved by the Father
And I am loved by the Son
And 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

And I am loved by the Father
And I am loved by the Son
And it is love that has captured
The heart of this grateful one

I heard You singing in the silence a simple melody
Words of love, oh I can hear it
My Father is very fond of me.

Behind the Song:
'Joel Hanson played this for me years ago. I loved it ever since. My love of the outdoors and the wonder of God’s pursuant love come together in this great song.' - Geoff Moore
