Nothing in Exchange

Quoting main character evaines words from the movie stardust; "Love is unconditional, uncontrollable, unbearable.. Its like my heart belongs to you, and ill give it to you, asking for nothing in exchange, only that you love me the same way" I have to agree her words, not only in the way mankind loves each other, but isnt it a good description of Gods love for us? Afterall, mankind can only love each other becos God loved in the first place, and all love comes from God afterall. But what love is more unconditional, more unbearable, more true than that of the Father in Heaven? Who came down to die, asking for nothing in exchange? even when we sin against Him over and over, even when we fall short of His grace, He still loves us all the same..for theres nothing we can exchange for his love, but all He ask is that we love Him back. Unending Love, Amazing Grace.

V1
Where do I begin, where do I even start?
Of everything that keeps us apart
And I ask for nothing, but ill ask just this one thing..
Do you feel the same?

Cos I love you, and theres nothing you can do about that
Nothing you can say, nothing will outweigh
Cos theres no price I would not pay.
And you can give me..

Chorus
Nothing in exchange
You may never have heard of me
I could just be a distant figure
And you can hurt me over and over...
But I will still love and care for you
And I will still wait for you
And I hope that youll love me back, and I hope that you love me back

V2
If only you could realise, if only you could recognise
My love is all that you need
And this song will not be enough, cos words just are not enough
To explain the depth of my love

My love is strong, stronger than youll ever know
Nothing you can do or say, would be able to repay
And I give this love for..Nothing in exchange
(chrous)


Anywhere you are, I would be there for you
And to the depths of the grave, I went there for you
Come and take my hand, and your search will come to an end

Trust me when I say, that I am the way
when I speak the truth, that I am the truth
I have given you my life, cos I am the life


No matter what the cost, I would do it again
Cos when everything is lost, my love will remain

Nothing in exchange
You may not even know who I am
I might just be a distant figure
And you might break my heart over and over..
But unconditional love
Came down to die from heaven above
Just for the hope that youll love me back
Just for the hope that youll love me back
