A few words from jade
The belief that God is mad at us is a lie from the pit of hell. I wrote, “I’m Not Mad At You” to address this. Paul reminds us in Romans 8, “If God is for us, who can be against us?” God is very much for us. He thought us into existence, formed and fashioned us Himself, and loves us so deeply that He gave His very blood and breath to give us life.
While our sin separates us from God, He bridged that gap through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. He is sacrificial love. He is not a distant God, and His love for us is immense—not because we are deserving, but because He is all kind and all merciful.
I pray this song draws our hearts back to the Lord’s love for us and brings healing.
I’m not mad at you lyrics
Verse 1
I am not mad at you
I’m not a distant God
In-fact I’ve never turned
My head from you
Verse 2
No matter what you’ve done
No matter where you’ve been
My love’s not based on anything that you do
Pre Chorus 1
'Cause I made You
There’s no rejection to face
My hands formed you
I know you’re no mistake
Chorus 1
Love, love for as long as there is time
Love, love, I will call you to My side
And there I’ll heal you, help you
Lift your weary head, and I'll hold your face
Look into my eyes and you'll see grace
Verse 3
When you were just My thought
I breathed you to life from dust
And in the dust
I’d go to take your place
Verse 4
You have not let Me down
As if My heart could fall
I’m on your side
I’m fighting for you now
Pre Chorus 2
'Cause I made You
There’s no rejection to face
My hands formed you
I know you’re no mistake
Chorus 2
Love, love for as long as there is time
Love, love, I will call you to My side
And there I’ll heal you, help you
Lift your weary head, and I'll hold your face
Look into my eyes and you'll see grace
Chorus 3
Love, love for as long as there is time
Love, love, I will call you to My side
And there I’ll heal you, help you
Lift your weary head, and I'll hold your face
Look into my eyes and you'll see grace
