Habakkuk 2

Then the Lord replied: "Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay."

You Loved Me

This song was a collaboration between Tosin Iyawo Ogaga and myself back in December of 2019. We did another one in May of that same year called, "It’s All You." I thoroughly enjoyed these collaborations with Tosin. She and I shared the vocals on this second song that we did together.


You Loved Me


An Original Work / December 3, 2019

A song based off the poem by the same name @ Original Works

Music and lyrics by Sue Love @ Original Works & Tosin Iyawo Ogaga

Vocals by Tosin Iyawo Ogaga & Sue Love


When I was lonely and afflicted,

You were there to pick me up.

You took me in Your arms,

And You held me tenderly.


Your love embraced me.

Your grace sustained me.


When my heart cried out to You

In my fear and my despair,

You never turned away,

But You let me know You loved me.


Your grace forgave me.

You did not shame me.


Then, when I answered the call,

“Here, Lord, send me.”

You sent me to where I must be.

Your mercy held me, did not fail me.

All this, You had planned, to use me.


And, when all trials and scorn

Came to test me.

You gave me all that I would need.

You strengthened me so I’d not fail You.

Your kindness blessed me, it touched me.


And, when I needed the church 

To lift up me,

To hearten me so I’d not fail,

You blessed me with folks who would love me.

Their presence with me, Your praise hailed!


And, when I walked through the valley

Of the shadow of the death,

And tears flowed from my eyes,

Still Your kindness was there for me.


Your touch, it healed me.

For I believed You.


When now I think about the ways,

Of the many, many ways

That You in Your great love

Show me that You’ll always care for me,


My heart, it thanks You,

And gladness fills me, fills me.
