Overwhelmed

v.1
Long ago before this world was formed
You reached out and numbered all my days
Grace and mercy flowing down through time
E’er this heart or lips could sing your praise

(chorus)
You overwhelm me God
With love that never ends
You overwhelm me God
That you would call me friend
You overwhelm me
You overwhelm me
You overwhelm me God

v.2
At the cross you turned your face away
Poured on Christ the ocean of my sin
Now I’m safe beneath your holy eyes
Judging me yet seeing only him

(bridge)
And worlds may spin and stars may fall
You speak your word control them all
And hearts of stone are turned to flesh
They’re miracles, your miracles

    "I find Marc Heinrich’s music moving and his lyrics faithful to Scripture, sobered with the real world of suffering, and creative in expression. I am happy to say: Listen and learn and be drawn further up and further in to God’s presence."

    John Piper
    Pastor for Preaching & Vision
    Bethlehem Baptist Church
    Minneapolis, MN


    "I love Further Up and Further In Music because I love Marc Heinrich. Marc is a man with a powerful gift for songwriting who loves Jesus and the local church. His lyrics are always thoughtful and theologically robust, driving us to the supremacy of Christ and the glory of the gospel."

    R W Glenn
    Pastor of Preaching & Vision
    Redeemer Bible Church
    Minnetonka, MN


    "Is that dirge they're playing one of yours Heinrich? It's not too bad." (on hearing the worship team run Only Jesus)

    "Marc is a very funny guy and a good friend. But neither of those reasons tell you why I appreciate his songs. Marc uses language and music in a creative way to express genuine struggles and joys in light of a sovereign, gracious Redeemer."
