Story Behind The Song
God made the following verse come to life while we were on a family vacation out west. As I was staring up a one of the sequoia trees, I heard God speak to my heart "I love you higher than the sequoias" When we were at the ocean, I heard God whisper "I love you deeper than the sea" and when we were at the Grand Canyon, I heard God whisper "I love you wider than the Grand Canyon".
It really strengthened my love for God to have this picture of how much He loves me. He showed this to me so that I could share it so that others will know how much God loves them.
Ephesians 3:16-18
"I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ"

Heavenly Love
Higher than the Sequioia, deeper than the sea
Wider than the Grand Canyon is Your love for me
And when a wave of Your love washes over my soul
it's better than anything this world holds
Sometimes Your love takes my breath away
Sometimes it takes me by surprise
Many times Your love is a calm delight
or so beautiful that it makes me cry
Repeat Chorus:
When Your heavenly love touches me deep inside
Filling a space only You can fill
My spirit swells with incredible joy
Far above any earthly thrill
Repeat Chorus
Your love is deep and wide and long and high
more than our earthly minds comprehend
Open the eyes of my heart so I can see
Your love that will never end
