Jars Of Clay - Love Song For A Savior Lyrics






In open fields of wild flowers,
she breathes the air and flies away
She thanks her Jesus for the daises and the roses
in no simple language
Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all
He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close a heartbeat or a song on her lips
Someday she'll trust Him and learn how to see Him
Someday He'll call her and she will come running
and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and she'll pray,

"I want to fall in love with You"

Sitting silent wearing Sunday best
The sermon echoes through the walls
A great salvation through it calls to the people
who stare into nowhere, and can't feel the chains on their souls

He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close a heartbeat or a song on our lips
Someday we'll trust Him and learn how to see Him
Someday He'll call us and we will come running
and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and we'll pray,

"I want to fall in love with You"

It seems too easy to call you "Savior",
Not close enough to call you "God"
So as I sit and think of words I can mention
to show my devotion

"I want to fall in love with You"

"my heart beats for You"

    Matthew 7:22-23

    22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

    23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

    I grew up outside Seattle in the 90’s when they first started playing JOC. Good times.

  5. J.... D....

    One of the percussion samples from this a ng come from James Brown's song entitled "Funky Drummer". Check out this other video at 4:12 - https://youtu.be/orJggsV9JHM

    I adore this song!

  7. B.... V....

    I played this song again today.
    I want to fall in love with you!
    Thank you Jesus for your blood

  8. B.... o....

    Wait a minute... what happened to the video. Oh I am heartbroken. Was one of my FAVORITE videos! The little girl was so cute and perfect running in the sunny field. How the Lord loves children. Still a great song and vid though. God bless.

  12. n.... m....

    Takes me back to when I a kid this song now brings me to tears

  13. A.... J....

    I listen to this song and it reminds me of my parents who guided me in my christian walk.I remember seeing my Mom and Dad but not shedding any tears but just reflecting and knowing that they completed their work here and were now rejoicing with the Savior.I am now 52 and living for God so that one day I will see my parents again.

  14. B.... V....

    Thank you Jesus and Jar of Clay for this beutiful song.

    Amen! This song just popped in my head laying in bed. Its been years since i last heard it its a blessing to hear it again god is good

  18. W.... ....

    If you need a good cry... this isn't a bad place to start. Through everything, everything- what I need most is to focus on loving Jesus and being loved by him. At times that's all I can receive. Thank you, Jesus.

  19. D.... S....

    I want to fall again I love with Him

  20. K.... T....

    Why did they stop making music?

  21. M.... E....

    This song always calms my soul.

  28. B.... G....

    The best album I ever found in an attic.

  29. N.... B....

    Some songs just stay in your heart forever.

    N.... B....

    Indeed, Nicole. Indeed.

  30. A.... ....

    If Jars of Clay had a song nowadays they would call it Love Song for a Sinful World. Dan supports the lgbt community and sees no wrong in same sex marriage, sad :(

  31. H.... B....

    My sister sang this at our wedding

  32. F.... E....

    BEAUTIFUL!!! 💚

  33. S.... P....

    I've had a complicated relationship with God, but I feel Him when listening to this album.

    S.... P....

    Steve P. He is always here

  34. W.... M....

    Miss listening to this song on K-love.

  35. M.... C....

    Thank you Dianne for your store...

  36. k.... ....

    One of the top 10 Christian albums of the past 25 years. Give me this, Jesus freak, candycoatedwaterdrops, gang affiliated any day.

  37. C.... G....

    so intimate...so beautiful...
    Ilove you JESUS...

  38. n.... ....

    Beautiful song. However, the western Jesus with long hair and trimmed beard is very far from factual.
    Also, why is there only females in the photos apart from Jesus ?

    n.... ....

    shhhhhhhhhhhh.....just have a moment with your Lord and Saviour....

    n.... ....

    CL Lillou >>> I have my "moments", thank you. Doesn't change the fact that this video bring questions on the perception people have of Jesus and the "girl-centred" aspect of it.

  39. V.... C....

    Beautiful! 😙

  40. m.... ....

    Oh my gosh, the perfect picture to go with every single lyric in this perfect song. Thank you so much for putting this together, and may God bless you richly.

  41. B.... g....

    I sang along to the song in my head its one of my favorite.

  42. H.... m....

    💕💓💓💓💕 I love you Jesus.

  43. S.... H....

    Praise you, come Lord Jesus!

  44. G.... D....

    Love, love this song!! Takes me back when I was a new Christian...and I HAVE fallen in love with Jesus...💕

  45. M.... E....

    "Can't feel the chains on their souls"---the only time they show a black woman in the whole video.
    Just saying.

    M.... E....

    She's Indian

  46. f.... ....

    I was at a point where I was absolutely totally in love with my lord and savior. ...not there now and I don't have a very good outlook on life without God in my life....

  47. f.... ....

    No joke all honesty here -I grew up in church with very loving parents who raised me right -to live like jesus and love God....I got far away from that....I really need this and God's word to help me get back to where I was!!! Please pray for me

    f.... ....

    Same. Getting far away from that was the best thing I ever did. I still love some of this music though.

    f.... ....

    I will , pray for me.

    f.... ....

    @Brent Fleming yes I will pray for you

    f.... ....

    Praying!! I'm the same grew up on this and I strayed. Im coming back and bringing my daughter in too

    f.... ....

    Praying you found Jesus and God again. 🙏💙

  48. S.... C....

    Why does she have to have a tank top on ?That's low cut ?

  49. G.... u....

    Beautiful

  50. L.... ....

    That's a beautiful song. I just never get the generic Movie Maker stock photo slideshows that I feel are somewhat distracting from the music. Is there a purpose?

  51. N.... L....

    Powerful lyrics

  52. G.... S....

    why is this the first thing that comes up for jars of clay instead of flood?

  53. w.... w....

    When we fall in love with Jesus Christ and surrender to him he teaches us how to forgive and let go and to make peace with it

  54. D.... M....

    This is one of the hardest songs to hear for me, I absolutely loved it in the height of my love for Jesus. in the early 2000's it Was MY SONG !!! Now , With the loss of people I trusted, like my husband - the road I traveled the last 5 years or so, I have been put through the fire. I dreaded hearing this song- well it just happened. I heard it and cried like a baby, although I still love the lord, the pain of remembering how naive I was in trusting, my heart ached. this was the song my kids now young adults probably remember most when they think of me, it was hard to trust then and I did, and I loved Jesus with everything, now at a new level I have even more issues trusting, yet deep down inside I know that He is with me and always has been. it hurt to hear it this morning , but it was needed and necessary to hear it for my growth and understanding that things change but God doesn't .
    Trust is a major issue with me , I hate that it is, its not how I want to be, but it is a part of me. I am thankful for the valley, in a weird way. it is there I have grown -
    thank you jars of clay
    thank you jesus

    D.... M....

    He will never leave you

    D.... M....

    I understand, more than you can know. Life can be so unbearably hard. For me, music is the most helpful and necessary thing.

    D.... M....

    I'm right there with you. Different situation but God leads us through valleys and on the mountain tops. Idk why other than to show me His love for me and everyone.

    D.... M....

    If you haven't yet. I'd invite you to watch the Film Ragamuffin. It's reignited a fire that I have longed for and often got set off the holy path because I felt like I was someone who was unable to feel the love of God. I thought I was so broken that I just ended up hoping I would have gained entry to. Constantly praying that I wasn't a bad person each time I did terrible things. Talking and screaming to God my apologies. I didn't realize till two days ago.....I am not late in finding my purpose, I just needed to be broken enough to desire to hear it. After years thinking that having a holy fire in your soul was a exaggerated feeling yet wishing it wasn't, I watched this Film and found that my purpose was not able to be found until I can hear something I understood and I understood being broken and scared and craving the hunger for Christ. My hope is everyone reading this will too.

    D.... M....

    And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. - Revelation 21:4

  55. B.... M....

    Frustrating. I've always loved this song. I was just listening to it now, and for the first time, I questioned the line, "Not close enough to call You God." But Jesus is God from God, light from light, true God from true God, begotten not made, consubstantial with the Father. In an otherwise beautiful song about Jesus, that line borders on Arianism.

    B.... M....

    Ben, the lyricist depicted his search for saving knowledge in Christ perfectly. When we are seekers, we have tons of questions, like I did. He says that he doesn't want to hold anything back from God, that he wants to fall in Love, and to give of himself completely to God, that he longs to understand and appreciate all that God is, instead of offering lip service.

  56. O.... B....

    I love this song song by Jars of Clay 🎶👌

  57. M.... H....

    I am in love with you Jesus and our Father.

  58. F.... J....

    bons tempos, minha adolescência foi ouvindo estas músicas maravilhosas. aqui no Brasil

  59. G.... R....

    Someone out of my past asked which band I Loved the Jars of Clay. They looked puzzled. Michael I know in my heart you were special, because I knew the Real you....I hated a part of you that would plant bad seeds....but I also remember the Good part of you that put on a concert for a sweet girl that we both knew. suffering w/cancer....that we finally lost. I love all the songs you do. May God continue to bless you & your music. By the way my husband is a Gospel song writer. He is very passionate about his faith. He needs a promoter, Producer. I myself are very passionate about our.

  60. P.... M....

    One of my best Jars of Clay songs...Like if yours too..show some love for this.. :)

  61. S.... P....

    Beautiful song first and foremost for our personal relationship with Jesus. It also makes me think about my future wife, and how I want this song played at my wedding. I don't know the right person now, but God does. I will trust in him (I'm still only 19).

  62. D.... E....

    i love this song it was on my school web site becuse i am home schoold.

  63. S.... C....

    This is my prayer I want to love you more

  64. D.... A....

    songs for the soul!!!

  65. A.... F....

    Nostalgia 👌🏽

  66. d.... ....

    South Park did an episode about this.

    d.... ....

    seriously? which episode?

  67. j.... s....

    Thank YOU. For. This song..

    j.... s....

    Awesome song

  68. A.... I....

    what people don't realize... I want to fall in love with you!

  69. A.... N....

    What people don't realize is that Heaven is right above us, in the Heavens. The stars.

    A.... N....

    Automatic No Static That could be true

    A.... N....

    @Allyn F
    that's because it is true.

  70. J.... J....

    my fav!

  71. K.... C....

    always my fave Godly song ^_^

  72. G.... W....

    God is good!

  73. T.... T....

    Hmmm, why do I have to turn restricted mode off to let my watch this video :( beautiful song and video, not sure why that would be

  74. H.... B....

    wow I'm so nutty I thought when it said the song on her lips it said the SALT on her lips 😁

  75. S.... A....

    good song i love it

    S.... A....

    Biblically, there are 3 heavens mentioned I.e. the third heaven that Paul writes about being called up to...

  76. S.... ....

    Of course, Jesus did NOT have long hair...

    S.... ....

    Ok, maybe it was shameful back then, idk. But not all guys with long hair are gay. I prefer long hair on men, it makes them look good. And they know how to do hair.

    S.... ....

    @Allyn F
    LOL, I know how to do hair but I don't have long hair. I grew up with two sisters. Long hair is not for men. My wife appreciates it. We all have preferences BUT what He says goes, right?

    S.... ....

    @SergeantRAZOR It doesn't matter anyways, cause God loves us all, and definitely wouldn't send us to hell JUST for long hair. I don't appreciate your homophobic slurs. All you're doing is starting arguments for nothing.

    S.... ....

    @Homer Bart LOL...

    S.... ....

    You are right. Well, ish. Nobody said his hair was long or not. As +homer bart said ", cause God loves us all, and definitely wouldn't send us to hell JUST for long hair." his point is DEFINITIVE. as it say's in the bible:

    John 3:16
    For god so loved the world he gave his only begotten son.

    What does that have to say? I think it doesn't matter. I'll leave him alone if he leaves me alone. Nobody know's where heaven is and nobody knows what Jesus looked like. Relax bud.

  77. B.... G....

    I grew up listening to this. Always get me back to those moments growing up remembering hearing this song, and not understanding what it really meant. And now, looking back, it really puts it in perspective for me.

  78. C.... ....

    Great Song!!! ♥

  79. R.... D....

    I sang this song with my cousin at my sisters funeral (who was 15 when she died) back in 2003. Some of these lyrics are written on her headstone. Thanks for this beautiful song.

    R.... D....

    I am so sorry for your loss. it never leave you. That was a long time ago, not to diminish your loss. 10 years later, in 2013, we had this song played as my bride walked down the aisle to marry me. It meant the same for both us, a love song for a savior, but also to each other.

    R.... D....

    Wow. Thank you for sharing, Robin.Bless you. This song is very meaningful to me and my family, as well.

    R.... D....

    "i want to fall in love with you...." deep !!!

    R.... D....

    Toque do.

    R.... D....

    🙏💟

  80. f.... ....

    Are only women allowed?

  81. M.... W....

  86. m.... m....

    what a song he loves's so much. how do we cant not fall in love with loved us first. he loved us even we hated him.

    m.... m....

    @mike mcgann Amen brother, I heard this song when I was really upset for the first time, it was like God just put my head on his shoulder and eased my worries away, to this day I promise I heard a voice, saying, "Shh, it's okay, it's gonna be alright."

  87. T.... N....

    Love this song even though it's my first time listening to it

    T.... N....

    The Ninja Creeper first heard it on the eharmony commercials,

  88. S.... S....

    hi  brooke  you should listen t jars clay

  89. J.... S....

    im glad theres  ONE comment section where everyones fighting and cussing so it like comment reahen

  90. k.... o....

    has anyone heard of 9.5.1 on the radio

  91. K.... ....

    I dont know exactly what they mean in the song by "easy to call you Savior but not close enough to call you God.".....???? Jesus IS GOD!
     Am I taking that part to a different meaning than it sounds?:/ i used to love that song until i hear that part cause Im not sure exactly what they mean by it...

    K.... ....

    I think it's because to call Him "God" is so impersonal but to call Him Jesus is first name basis, but easy.

    K.... ....

    WHITE STUNNA show me one scripture that says that there is a trinity. Jesus is the son of God. He sits at his right hand at the throne. Being Gods son makes him one with God. But not the same. There is the Father, the son and the Holy Spirit. Three individuals, connected. But not one and the same.

    So back your fury up with some texts and don’t just believe what you’re told.

    K.... ....

    The lyricist wanted to hold nothing back from God. He wanted to give God everything that was due Him. He wants to grow in Him, especially in Love.

    K.... ....

    Jesus said He was God, and He was killed for it because the Jews and Romans knew very well what He meant by His words and actions. Please review the Gospel accounts, as well as historical sources outside of the Bible, Kydd. Gary Habermas' minimal facts argument for Jesus' resurrection, which can be found on YouTube easily, is also an important part of that journey. Blessings.

    K.... ....

    jesus is not god. he is the SON OF MAN,....if he was god jesus wouldn't have proclaimed, "man shall not come unto the father except through him ...through love and faith in jesus our lord and savior , I am among the top theologians in the world so I hope this clarifies the writers intent...

  92. P.... H....

    Want to see Gaither s singing the load will be much lighter whenJesus lifts the load

  93. J.... P....

    Why did Jars of clay get so little airplay? They were amazing!

    J.... P....

    John Paluska They got quite a bit of airplay on Christian radio up until their Good Monsters album in 2006. After that they went the indie route and fizzled out of the CCM scene because they wanted to be able to express themselves more artistically, and the indie market is the best place to do that right now.

    J.... P....

    John Paluska that's WHY. too raw and original for radio. Especially Christian music scene.

    J.... P....

    @John Pauluska ..Jars of Clay did even a rock station in Florida did. It was awesome

    J.... P....

    They did..I replied below

  94. J.... S....

    Great song...I feel the need to share something. Any of you who have dreamt or had a vision of an apocalyptic asteroid strike where the U.S. was hit during the night I would like to hear feedback from you. The end of my dream was the most chilling. A message of words. New York is gone it has begun.

    J.... S....

    Daaahahahahaha!

  95. M.... M....

    Beautiful

  96. b.... ....

    How is it a misuse of the song? I think it couldn't be closer to the truth - in the sense of putting the love of God first.
