The Mystery of Love

v.1
Narrow is the road,
And weary is the way,
That ends in peace and joy.
Lord, lead me there I pray.

v.2
Take me to that place,
Where your glory’s all I see.
To feel your presence there,
In answer to my prayer,
Holding out your hand to me.

You are my refuge in the wilderness.
There is shelter ‘neath your wings.
And you supply, the strength to fly,
And soar above this world, and I
Will always follow you.

For Lord, you came to die.
You could, but wouldn’t fly,
A pure and perfect dove.
And bleeding on a tree,
You set the guilty free,
The mystery of love.

    "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."
