Nothing can separate us, child,
I promise not one thing;
Nothing can separate us, child,
Trust in this truth I bring.
Death, life, angels and rulers,
Things present and things to come,
Not one of these can separate us,
For your life I did ransom.
Feel this truth embrace you,
Warming the depths of your heart;
Lo, I am with you always,
You and I will never part.
See the branch and its leaves?
Closer are you and Me;
Your heart is bound to Mine,
I am yours for eternity.
Come now, My child,
Rejoice in this truth I share;
You are a treasure to Me, daughter,
I love you beyond compare.
Saying this, You take my hand,
I savor the words You say;
My Lord, I follow You always,
With love You pave my way.
Surely nothing can separate us,
Your love is eternal and strong;
Heights and depths I fear not,
For in Your arms I do belong.
I am Your child forever,
I rejoice to know this is true;
What could be sweeter, my Jesus,
Than to spend eternity with You?
Take my heart, take my life,
Take my all, take everything;
Forever we are together, Lord,
Forever You are my King.
For nothing can separate us, Lord,
I trust not even one thing;
Nothing can separate us, Lord,
Of Your eternal love I sing.

Purposeful Pathway
For I am convinced that neither
death nor life, neither angels nor demons,
[a] neither the present nor the future,
nor any powers, neither height nor depth,
nor anything else in all creation,
will be able to separate us
from the love of God
that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:38-39 (NIV)
