My best friend and I were driving around yesterday and she played this for me in the car. The windows were down and my hair was blowing everywhere and the first touch of fall weather was cold on my face. And I could feel Jesus so, so close to me. And I realize that I live for those moments. I know that He's always there, but oh how I love when I can feel Him.
+Arlynn em praying for you. I often find myself coming to this song time and time again.. gives me strength and it gives me purpose.. its a clear definition of Jesus' love for us put into words. His love is indescribable. and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't express my love for Him and others. people often forget... life is all ab love. that's it. if we followed those first two commandments.. there would be no need for the other commandments. ♡♡♡
Arlynn em don't be sad my sweet sister in the Lord he loves you do you know he desires you to snuggle close when you feel like this to his everlasting tender heart. I hope and pray for you that his love tells you to give up your burdens and pains inside to him and that you find rest in Jesus Christ for he loves you.
I have suffered from depression for a long time...i lost both my parents when i was quite young. attempted suicide twice..lost my brother and my sister. I have felt so distant from God lately. So much has been going on and going wrong...been feeling suicidal...2 days from my 40th birthday because i feel like such a failure. wasted opportunities..This song has touched me. Its reminded me that God loves me just as I am, flaws and all. He doesnt give his love in pieces.
You're not broken. Theres nothing you're doing wrong. You especially are not a failure. Your deep sadness is completely the result of this satanic system - where death, injustice reigns supreme. Keep holding on to whatever you need to in order to find some peace of mind. If you don't find it, no worries. We will all taste death soon enough. Afterwards, we hope in the better things to come. 🙏
Dear sister depression is a demon Fight it so With God's word Research scripture for depression counter words SEek joy joy joy of Lord is your strength Lord has given us 3 weapons Praise His blood His Word Fight the enemy of your soul or he will fight u Joy Joy Joy
As a child my definition of love was hateful words, screaming and inadequacy. A fathers love was constantly being told I was nothing and he didnt want to even acknowledge me. It was a hide and seek game with his heart. Entering college my friends began to try to change me view of what love should be. Only then did I realize just how broken I was. This song became a promise to me. A promise that God's love was true and never failing. He would always give His heart to me in full. Thank you for this beautiful reminder of what love is.
I have been absolutely wrecked by this song, it's wild how God can speak to the depths of our hearts in lyrics. Your love’s not passive It's never disengaged It's always present It hangs on every word we say Love keeps its promises It's keeps its word It honors what’s sacred Cause it's vows are good Your love's not broken It's not insecure Your love's not selfish Your love is pure
i would also type this to and me and my mom really really like really love going to chuch and i am 8 years old and i think your very pretty and my moms name is rita and i love you by kisses
Marrika Sanders God leaves that up to you, he doesnt tell you to marry, make sure your praying that he would make you like him so that in knowing him you can find qualities of a man that you can identify, if he were a god fearing man or not, gos directs our choices, but we make them, and be cautious that whatever cute boy whos nice comes your way you dont infatuate over, if you know god he doesnt care for outer appearance, so dont let it sway your decisions either! God bless
I played this for my niece who is not religious at all, and it moved her to tears. So beautifully put she felt love, and moved her to have faith and believe.
When I heard " You don't hide yourself to tease us" , it was like someone pushed me into a frozen lake. I choked on my tea because that was the perfect answer to my complaining. God bless!
This song has really sent me over the edge! I recently reconnected with my love from 33 years ago. God has seen fit to bring us together and He is working on healing our hearts so we can come together with WHOLE hearts and not give our hearts to each other in pieces! This song was a revelation to me about how we give our heart away to others in pieces. God comes without reserve to give us HIS WHOLE heart. He shows us what true love is...He's never disengaged, He's WILD for us, He's PURE! Praise Him! This song WILL be at my wedding, for sure!!
I was thinking about how many times people I’ve pined away for people who showed me I didn’t check all the relationship boxes for them and then I think about Jesus just being there for me being consistent longing for me and loving me!!! Brings me to tears!😢❤
Daddy saved me from a life of prostitution. God got me out all by Himself. No one gets the glory but only my Daddy. Thank YOU DADDY JESUS CHRSIT HOLY SPIRIT!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👸🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻👰🏻Jesus has His Virgin Bride.
If anyone's really FELT God's Love, there's no way you can percieve the lyrics of this song from a worldly perspective, because no human can love like this. Guaranteed. This song still brings me to tears. It takes me to this place of worship that i cant explain.
God you are so faithful and lovely. Please help my soul rest in you----i have been left somewhat weary, and need help finding myself again. I just want to rest securely in you and not fear. Amen
He hears you keep worshipping there's nothing like praising him that makes him bigger than all the other stuff at first it'll feel odd but he promises there's a breakthrough in our praise
+Akire Ferris praying with you. He is closer than your next breath-- He has never left you. Lord, we speak Your peace and love over Akire. You know her heart, You know what she is walking through, and we know in full faith that You are the good Father. We ask that You replace every doubt, every fear, every lie with Your truth and grace. You have destined her for greatness and desire to see her thrive and grow. We praise You for her life!
+Akire Ferris good day sister. sorry to hear about this and I believe that he will and i rebuke the spirit of fear and the spirit of discouragement off of your life now in Jesus name. Encourage yourself in the Lord. those who come to him by no means he shall cast out.
This song makes me feel so unworthy, so undeserving, so unfaithful, but it also makes me feel so happy, happy that God loves me through my unfaithfulness; even though I’m unworthy and undeserving; even though I’m shattered, broken beyond recognition. He loving holds my weak, pitiful, broken heart and whispers, ‘I love you’.
This song broke through illusions fear and pain for me. I love it. Sometimes God speaks through music to me. This one was more like having it breathed into my soul. Strong overpowering and gentle.
Unreserved, unrestrained Your love is wild Your love is wild for me It isn't shy, it's unashamed Your love is proud To be seen with me You don't give Your heart in pieces You don't hide Yourself to tease us Uncontrolled, uncontained Your love is a fire Burning bright for me It's not just a spark It's not just a flame Your love is a light That all the world will see All the world will see You don't give Your heart in pieces You don't hide Yourself to tease us Your love's not fractured It's not a troubled mind It isn't anxious It's not the restless kind Your love's not passive It's never disengaged It's always present It hangs on every word we say Love keeps its promises It keep its word It honors what's sacred 'Cause its vows are good Your love's not broken It's not insecure Your love's not selfish Your love is pure You don't give Your heart in pieces You don't hide Yourself to tease us
"You don't hide yourself to tease us". This part hit home for me. I have seen His goodness in my life but if you look at what's going wrong, it is very easy to be disheartened. Keep pushing brothers and sisters.
what am incredible song I cry almost every time I hear it. The lyrics are so true and raw with emotion it could surely make a broken hearted person crumble to tears in awe of Jesus
This song is such a beautiful explanation of Abba Father's complete love. He does not hold back. He gives all. This song has moved my Spirit over and over on repeat today. What a beautiful love ballad, a beautiful dance with the Creator. Thank you Amanda and the Bethel Music crew, you continue to minister to me and help me draw nearer to our loving Father.
Your love is proud to be seen with me...Wow pieces.fractioned.hiding. God's love is so unlike the love of so much of the world. It is complete, overwhelming, whole, not passive not disengaged. Hangs on every word I say. Such healing in this song!! My new favorite!
After listening to this song and being blessed by how much God loves us; it occured to me that maybe, just maybe, if we loved each other as thus, the world would be a better place. If we did not love selfishly, gave our hearts in pieces, did not love passively, never broke our vows, words, promises...we would be better people. Moving from "glory to glory" would make so much sense the. And transforming to the person of Jesus Christ would be evident in our lives. Thanks Amanda!!
God doesn't withhold anything.... He doesn't give his heart in pieces. Once he is ours he is fully ours. I'm so thankful for His incomprehensible love!
can we admire some of those words for a second... i have never ever been able to truly put my hands on words to describe him as love before... "your love is proud to be seen with me" ? OMG ! "you don't give your heart in pieces" ... and then look at what the world offers ... thank you god, thank you for drowning me in you, you're love
@go green Lemme try to explain it from my interpretation.. Whenever we ask God something that we want, be it a good life, or to save us from hardships and sorrow, but even after many many prayers of asking, it just sometimes feels like nothing really change or he just doesnt answer our prayers which feels as if he is hiding from us... But the line `U dont hide urself to tease us' could mean that when it seems like He doesnt hear our prayers or feels like He is just hiding... His purpose will never be just to tease us in life of hardships and sorrow.. But as we all know He is the God who knows all our prayerss and His plans are better than our plans.. He has a better purpose when it seems like He is hiding
This song is just so powerful. I am so thankful for the encouragement it brings, because God really, really loves us! and this song is a good reminder of that.
Incredible!! First time we sang this song in worship, I bawled!! She sings what true love is like despite what others claimed to be true love!! Come on Amanda!
I don’t even have words for how much this song means to me ... thank you Jesus and thank you Amanda for your beautiful spirit your beautiful out of this world voice , your amazing talent with lyrics and on the piano - I wish I could meet you. Please don’t stop making music I listen to you every single morning. 💕
Wow! We are children of such an incredible loving & caring Father...He has so much compassion for those troubled in their minds and those filled with anxiety not able to enjoy the present moment. He cares more than we can ever comprehend. He is the only one constant in our lives....never changing & keeping to His promises. It’s so worth it surrendering to such a loving Father of Truth!
Lyrics Unreserved, unrestrained Your love is wild Your love is wild for me It isn't shy, it's unashamed Your love is proud To be seen with me 'Cause You don't give Your heart in pieces You don't hide Yourself to tease us Uncontrolled, uncontained Your love is a fire Burning bright for me It's not a spark It's not just a flame Your love is a light That all the world will see All the world will see That You don't give Your heart in pieces You don't hide Yourself to tease us, no You don't give Your heart in pieces, no And You don't hide Yourself to tease us Your love's not fractured It's not a troubled mind It isn't anxious It's not the restless kind Your love's not passive It's never disengaged It's always present It hangs on every word we say Love keeps its promises It keeps its word It honors what's sacred 'Cause its vows are good Your love's not broken It's not insecure Your love's not selfish Your love is pure You don't give Your heart in pieces And You don't hide Yourself to tease us You don't give Your heart in pieces 'Cause You don't hide Yourself to tease us You don't give Your heart in pieces
Not only is this the most creative worship album lyrically in years, but it is riddled with time signature changes. Most hymns and praise songs stick with either 4/4 time or 3/4 time, and very rarely 6/8 time. There is nothing wrong with that, but it takes a better songwriter to write progressive music. This is basically a progressive worship style.
Why have I been so selfish? I give to God my heart in pieces when His offering is a perfect example of what I am supposed to give; the whole heart belongs to Him. As broken as my heart is, I will give Him all that I can...
I was visiting a church during a hurricane evacuation when I first heard this song... I was so glad I didn't know anyone because it found me where I was and the waterworks cranked into high gear...
This is just awesome worship. Lately I've been feeling distant from God. I bless the Lord for this group especially Miss Steffany. I've been playing this for about 2-3 days non-stop and I'm being healed and His Spirit is near me. Praise God.
This song just describes how The Lord is amazing and how He is who He is and that he loves us because his grace and his love saved us from eternal death 🙏🙌
This song along with We Dance by Bethel is in our wedding video. It shows Gods love for us, and then love we desire to love each other with. We love because He first loved us.
My friend lost his father to this world a few moments ago. However, heaven had gain as he had given his life to Jesus. This song is now comforting me. I will be sending him this. May his father R.I.P.
The bridge is so convicting, yet so empowering. I have yet to keep my promises, to be pure, to be unselfish, and to love violently like Jesus. But I plan to, Jesus is on the move, He has been all this past week, I can feel it.
He loves me more than anyone ever could. It's difficult to even comprehend and is so humbling. Thank you bethel for the beautiful song and for using your talents to Glorify our King! :)
yesterday, my mother married my now step father. my brother and i were the first ones the walk down the isle, the other bridesmaids and 2 ring bearers followed (my step father, other groomsmen, and pastor walked out onto the stage from backstage before everyone walked down the isle). this song makes me cry anytime i hear it because it reminds me of how emotional it was seeing my mother and step father so happy to tie the knot, in the comfort of our church with our friends and family🤍
My mom passed away from heart failure 💔 on Christmas morning 2020. This song makes me feel different, though I know she's no more in pain. It really hurts not to have her around anymore 😪
Listened to this and just started crying and got chills, just so beautiful and so true, our God loves us so much, His love for us is indescribable and unexplainable, Thank you God for that wonderful, powerful, pure love.
I listen to this often. Amanda is such a talent and lovely human. I also love the displays in this videos of ships and the vastness of the beautiful ocean. God is such a beautiful painter and this album shouts His name with glory and grace.
Heard this the first time at School of the Prophets, first night! Blown away. Such an anointing to heal hearts, I could feel Him speaking the winds of hope back into me! Thank You! We just returned from Bethel (2 weeks) and this song is blowing through my spirit as it is our first day back and we're learning to walk with Him in every moment! Thank you for this beautiful reminder of Who He is . . . He is love!
This song brings me to tears every time. Praise the Lord for I can delight in him. God has done so much in my life. He has shown me how to live and to tell others of him. I am actually weeping right now. I feel like we need to pray more than ever as our world changes. Christians need to rise up and pray for the world, for an uprising and revelation in our broken world. For your love keeps its promises it keeps its word. Lord I dance and sing for I can stand before you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
For almost 2 whole years I have done stretches to this album before going to bed at night. I am a dancer, performer and school teacher. This album has lifted me out of the depths of suffering at times. This album has made me (literally) stretch to new heights. I know Amanda and her husband Jacob personally and I consider it an honour. They are lovely people. They are kind and so is Christ. Christ loves us in a way that is the most fulfilling love.
wow, I am just completely in awe of how God speaks through his people, I needed this sneak of the songs before the album only on my first one and I'm floored who wouldn't want to know the God we write about 🙌🙌🙌
We played this song for the first time at my church this past sunday. The spirit was so present. People cried. Good song guys y'all never cease to amaze me :)
this gives me chills everytime. i gave a witness talk tonight with the theme of "what do we give our hearts to?" and used this as my song to play afterwards, and it was so meaningful to so many people. thank you Amanda for sharing your talents!
when I hear this song I want to cry in a good way. it's just another reason why God is the BEST father ever I love my Earthly dad but God is the greatest God. just remember the we are all Sons and Daughters of the righteous God. you are loved SO much more you can ever imagine. God bless.
I just got home from listening to the Indiana Wesleyan Worship Band perform this for a week, and I’m so grateful that they introduced me to this song. When Brooke sang that bridge, I felt the Holy Spirit moving in the room, and I wasn’t the only one.
Man, I've been feeling so lost lately , kicking some people out shutting myself from the world and God, but this song reminds me that God will always be there, his love whole as ever, ALWAYS AND FOREVER THERE FOR ME!!!! HIS PRESENCE IS EVER CLOSE ALL WE NEED TO DO IS GO TO HIM, RUN TO HIM, HES ALWAYS THERE WAITING ALL BECAUSE....OF LOVE 💘 💗, THANK YOU JESUS, I DONT DESERVE IT BUT YOU ALWAYS MAKE ME FEEL WORTH IT
the first part that says "unreserved and unrestrained your love is wild for me. Steffany sings that little part while singing im no longer slaves. That's so amazing that they said the same exact thing!! haha
+Carla Murillo It IS amazing! I wonder if it is because Amanda was writing the song at the time and shared those words with Steffany or if Steffany sang those words and Amanda loved it so much she put it in her album OR if the Lord just revealed it both to them and neither of them realize this connection lol! Either way, it is AWESOME and God is surely getting the glory!
+SHaiLuVsTaCos I was in a QnA with Bethel Music just last week, and they were sharing various stuff. I think I remember Amanda sharing how "Closer" was originally her song and journey, but Steffany's was the voice that got to carry it out to the world. In a similar way "Pieces" was written with words and concepts out of Steffany's journal, which Amanda was allowed to refine into a song :) At one point all the different artists were sharing about their favorite worship-songs, and they definitely like each others' stuff, and listen to it a lot I'd imagine!
I love this music video that showcases the beautiful voice of Amanda Cook. She is a strong melodic singer with songs that tell the incredible stories of believing in Jesus Christ. I just bought her new album Brave World and love it...especially with headphones. Drifting, floating, loving, peaceful, and original. You must buy this!!!
I am amazed by the lyrics in this song and her song "Mercy" which I heard for the first time in church this morning, really got my attention. Really speak to my heart and very therapeutic. I am not normally so enthusiastic with contemporary gospel. This is special for me..
This song is very beautiful - it really touches my heart... is it the same with the rest of you?"Your love is a fire". Come Holy Spirit, fill us up with your Holy Presence... Thank you Bethel Music for these beautiful Christian songs.
Marrika and Stephanie, you both read my mind. I really love this song and I am praying my future husband will have those qualities like GOD. I would also love to use it for my wedding
I just heard Amanda's version for the first time. Girl, you have been blessed from God with such a beautiful voice. Thank you for your worship that is always true and a blessing!
I like everything about this song. The music, the lyrics. The idea that God gives Himself (Herself) fully. There is no reservation, no hidden agenda. This live is ours for the taking- if we desire it.
My best friend and I were driving around yesterday and she played this for me in the car. The windows were down and my hair was blowing everywhere and the first touch of fall weather was cold on my face. And I could feel Jesus so, so close to me. And I realize that I live for those moments. I know that He's always there, but oh how I love when I can feel Him.
this is so beautiful!! god bless x
I love the fall and I loved your comment.
That's amazing!!!
elvisobsessor May God's presence be with you everywhere and fill you with his Spirit !!!...Praise God praise God Hallelujah!!!
Love this
I've been so insecure and sad lately.. But God's love is so constant.
Arlynn em Please believe that God has a plan for you and He loves you so much.
I'm praying for you! ❤
That means a lot. Thankyou Joanne
+Arlynn em praying for you. I often find myself coming to this song time and time again.. gives me strength and it gives me purpose.. its a clear definition of Jesus' love for us put into words.

I hope and pray for you that his love tells you to give up your burdens and pains inside to him and that you find rest in Jesus Christ for he loves you.
Thankyou Tera that means a lot
This song makes me wanna write a book about Jesus and what his love can do to people.
Jazz Rivera go for it!!!
Write it!!!
Do It son!
do it, write the book & perhaps into an ebook. I'm sure with a little social media, it could be stellar!
You should totally do it!!
That bridge is incredible... The musician in me is impressed, the Spirit in me rejoices.
That's awesome
Haha agreed!
I have suffered from depression for a long time...i lost both my parents when i was quite young. attempted suicide twice..lost my brother and my sister. I have felt so distant from God lately.

I have been absolutely wrecked by this song, it's wild how God can speak to the depths of our hearts in lyrics.
Your love’s not passive
It's never disengaged
It's always present
It hangs on every word we say
Love keeps its promises
It's keeps its word
It honors what’s sacred
Cause it's vows are good
Your love's not broken
It's not insecure
Your love's not selfish
Your love is pure
May God Bless You
I didnt get the: "It hangs on every word we say." What does that mean?
It means that Jesus hears every word we say and that His love is everywhere. Our words are important to Him.
Amen
i would also type this to and me and my mom really really like really love going to chuch and i am 8 years old and i think your very pretty and my moms name is rita and i love you by kisses
My friend walked down the aisle to this song, it was so powerful!
Wooooow i can imagine what a beautiful moment that was!!!!!
.W.O.W. How impacting was that
It was amazing!!
I just wrote in my journal about the type of husband i want one day.. "he wont give his heart in pieces". pray for me lol
Marrika Sanders God leaves that up to you, he doesnt tell you to marry, make sure your praying that he would make you like him so that in knowing him you can find qualities of a man that you can identify, if he were a god fearing man or not, gos directs our choices, but we make them, and be cautious that whatever cute boy whos nice comes your way you dont infatuate over, if you know god he doesnt care for outer appearance, so dont let it sway your decisions either!

Musical Muse be strong!
Joseph Moore I received that as well🙌🙌
This song makes me feel so unworthy, so undeserving, so unfaithful, but it also makes me feel so happy, happy that God loves me through my unfaithfulness; even though I’m unworthy and undeserving; even though I’m shattered, broken beyond recognition. He loving holds my weak, pitiful, broken heart and whispers, ‘I love you’.
This song makes me cry my eyes out. Man when you realize how much God loves you its just so crazy. I can’t even explain it.
This song broke through illusions fear and pain for me. I love it. Sometimes God speaks through music to me. This one was more like having it breathed into my soul. Strong overpowering and gentle.
Unreserved, unrestrained
Your love is wild
Your love is wild for me
It isn't shy, it's unashamed
Your love is proud
To be seen with me
You don't give Your heart in pieces
You don't hide Yourself to tease us
Uncontrolled, uncontained
Your love is a fire
Burning bright for me
It's not just a spark
It's not just a flame
Your love is a light
That all the world will see
All the world will see
You don't give Your heart in pieces
You don't hide Yourself to tease us
Your love's not fractured
It's not a troubled mind
It isn't anxious
It's not the restless kind
Your love's not passive
It's never disengaged
It's always present
It hangs on every word we say
Love keeps its promises
It keep its word
It honors what's sacred
'Cause its vows are good
Your love's not broken
It's not insecure
Your love's not selfish
Your love is pure
You don't give Your heart in pieces
You don't hide Yourself to tease us
Shirleyni Jayakody Thank you ! 😍😍
"You don't hide yourself to tease us". This part hit home for me. I have seen His goodness in my life but if you look at what's going wrong, it is very easy to be disheartened. Keep pushing brothers and sisters.
I feel u
what am incredible song I cry almost every time I hear it. The lyrics are so true and raw with emotion it could surely make a broken hearted person crumble to tears in awe of Jesus
Jesus loves us he's with us always 🙏✝️❤️
This song is such a beautiful explanation of Abba Father's complete love. He does not hold back. He gives all. This song has moved my Spirit over and over on repeat today. What a beautiful love ballad, a beautiful dance with the Creator. Thank you Amanda and the Bethel Music crew, you continue to minister to me and help me draw nearer to our loving Father.
His love is not insecure! This speaks loudly to the feeble, insecure woman that I am. So comforting!
That's all of us sister, men included.
Same hereee
For a friend who was going through so many doubts and struggles, hoping it was going to end, this song is amazing. Praise Jesus for giving them hope!!
Your love is proud to be seen with me...Wow pieces.fractioned.hiding. God's love is so unlike the love of so much of the world. It is complete, overwhelming, whole, not passive not disengaged. Hangs on every word I say. Such healing in this song!! My new favorite!
After listening to this song and being blessed by how much God loves us; it occured to me that maybe, just maybe, if we loved each other as thus, the world would be a better place. If we did not love selfishly, gave our hearts in pieces, did not love passively, never broke our vows, words, promises...we would be better people. Moving from "glory to glory" would make so much sense the. And transforming to the person of Jesus Christ would be evident in our lives. Thanks Amanda!!
This song, wow. I have no words. Just on repeat!
Laura Mitchell yep
God doesn't withhold anything.... He doesn't give his heart in pieces. Once he is ours he is fully ours. I'm so thankful for His incomprehensible love!
can we admire some of those words for a second... i have never ever been able to truly put my hands on words to describe him as love before...
"your love is proud to be seen with me" ? OMG !
"you don't give your heart in pieces" ... and then look at what the world offers ...
thank you god, thank you for drowning me in you, you're love
"You don't hide Yourself to tease us." wow Amanda. I needed to hear this so bad.
Can you please explain what that line means?
@go green Lemme try to explain it from my interpretation.. Whenever we ask God something that we want, be it a good life, or to save us from hardships and sorrow, but even after many many prayers of asking, it just sometimes feels like nothing really change or he just doesnt answer our prayers which feels as if he is hiding from us... But the line `U dont hide urself to tease us' could mean that when it seems like He doesnt hear our prayers or feels like He is just hiding... His purpose will never be just to tease us in life of hardships and sorrow.. But as we all know He is the God who knows all our prayerss and His plans are better than our plans.. He has a better purpose when it seems like He is hiding
@@Z.Chhakchhuak thank you so much😄
@Go Green 🙏🙏
@@Z.Chhakchhuak wowww 👏🏽👏🏽 wonderful explaination. Thank you so much 💕
This song is just so powerful. I am so thankful for the encouragement it brings, because God really, really loves us! and this song is a good reminder of that.
May God Bless You
Incredible!! First time we sang this song in worship, I bawled!! She sings what true love is like despite what others claimed to be true love!! Come on Amanda!
I don’t even have words for how much this song means to me ... thank you Jesus and thank you Amanda for your beautiful spirit your beautiful out of this world voice , your amazing talent with lyrics and on the piano - I wish I could meet you. Please don’t stop making music I listen to you every single morning. 💕
Wow! We are children of such an incredible loving & caring Father...He has so much compassion for those troubled in their minds and those filled with anxiety not able to enjoy the present moment. He cares more than we can ever comprehend. He is the only one constant in our lives....never changing & keeping to His promises. It’s so worth it surrendering to such a loving Father of Truth!
Lyrics
Unreserved, unrestrained
Your love is wild
Your love is wild for me
It isn't shy, it's unashamed
Your love is proud
To be seen with me
'Cause You don't give Your heart in pieces
You don't hide Yourself to tease us
Uncontrolled, uncontained
Your love is a fire
Burning bright for me
It's not a spark
It's not just a flame
Your love is a light
That all the world will see
All the world will see
That You don't give Your heart in pieces
You don't hide Yourself to tease us, no
You don't give Your heart in pieces, no
And You don't hide Yourself to tease us
Your love's not fractured
It's not a troubled mind
It isn't anxious
It's not the restless kind
Your love's not passive
It's never disengaged
It's always present
It hangs on every word we say
Love keeps its promises
It keeps its word
It honors what's sacred
'Cause its vows are good
Your love's not broken
It's not insecure
Your love's not selfish
Your love is pure
You don't give Your heart in pieces
And You don't hide Yourself to tease us
You don't give Your heart in pieces
'Cause You don't hide Yourself to tease us
You don't give Your heart in pieces
Not only is this the most creative worship album lyrically in years, but it is riddled with time signature changes. Most hymns and praise songs stick with either 4/4 time or 3/4 time, and very rarely 6/8 time. There is nothing wrong with that, but it takes a better songwriter to write progressive music. This is basically a progressive worship style.
Wow. Just wow. Moved me to tears within seconds. His pure & perfect love never fails...Thank you Amanda Cook and Bethel music!
Why have I been so selfish? I give to God my heart in pieces when His offering is a perfect example of what I am supposed to give; the whole heart belongs to Him. As broken as my heart is, I will give Him all that I can...
I was visiting a church during a hurricane evacuation when I first heard this song... I was so glad I didn't know anyone because it found me where I was and the waterworks cranked into high gear...
BLEST ARE THOSE WHO MOURN
FOR THEY SHALL BE COMFORTED
@@IAM-dn6xr ammen!
This is just awesome worship. Lately I've been feeling distant from God. I bless the Lord for this group especially Miss Steffany. I've been playing this for about 2-3 days non-stop and I'm being healed and His Spirit is near me. Praise God.
I'm in tears! That was so beautiful and the Lord's love for us His children is sooooo beautiful and amazing!!!
This song just describes how The Lord is amazing and how He is who He is and that he loves us because his grace and his love saved us from eternal death 🙏🙌
This song along with We Dance by Bethel is in our wedding video. It shows Gods love for us, and then love we desire to love each other with. We love because He first loved us.
Jesus 😭😭when I think of the way you love me , it's all grace I don't deserve it, Thank you God for never giving up on me and my country 🇿🇼
My friend lost his father to this world a few moments ago. However, heaven had gain as he had given his life to Jesus. This song is now comforting me. I will be sending him this. May his father R.I.P.
The bridge is so convicting, yet so empowering. I have yet to keep my promises, to be pure, to be unselfish, and to love violently like Jesus. But I plan to, Jesus is on the move, He has been all this past week, I can feel it.
The idea that the only thing separating us from God, is us. He is ever giving, ever present, ever ready to meet with you and grow with you
Lord i am so obsessed with this song. Thinking about how deeply God loves me gives me goosebumps.
He loves me more than anyone ever could. It's difficult to even comprehend and is so humbling. Thank you bethel for the beautiful song and for using your talents to Glorify our King! :)
yesterday, my mother married my now step father. my brother and i were the first ones the walk down the isle, the other bridesmaids and 2 ring bearers followed (my step father, other groomsmen, and pastor walked out onto the stage from backstage before everyone walked down the isle). this song makes me cry anytime i hear it because it reminds me of how emotional it was seeing my mother and step father so happy to tie the knot, in the comfort of our church with our friends and family🤍
I been so sad and lonely and depressed but god has me covered and he gives me confidence.
Such an amazing song! The bridge makes me cry every time. The tears are worth it for Jesus
My mom passed away from heart failure 💔 on Christmas morning 2020. This song makes me feel different, though I know she's no more in pain. It really hurts not to have her around anymore 😪
Sorry for your loss, may God bless and strengthen you during this difficult time in your life!! 👑🙏🏾
@@martieahill81 thank you 😊🙏 and Amen
Newly betrayed, battered and broken, this song encourages me. God IS love. He is not insecure and he will never leave us.
The day Christ was born love came crashing into the earth! My heart Christ is his love poured out fully.
Listened to this and just started crying and got chills, just so beautiful and so true, our God loves us so much, His love for us is indescribable and unexplainable, Thank you God for that wonderful, powerful, pure love.
I love this song so much. what I think of when I hear this song: 1 corinthians 13: 4-7
Matthew 6: 33
I listen to this often. Amanda is such a talent and lovely human. I also love the displays in this videos of ships and the vastness of the beautiful ocean. God is such a beautiful painter and this album shouts His name with glory and grace.
This song is the most breathtaking & life changing song, and I just can't get enough of it!! #allthetears
Heard this the first time at School of the Prophets, first night! Blown away. Such an anointing to heal hearts, I could feel Him speaking the winds of hope back into me! Thank You! We just returned from Bethel (2 weeks) and this song is blowing through my spirit as it is our first day back and we're learning to walk with Him in every moment! Thank you for this beautiful reminder of Who He is . . . He is love!
The lyrics; the real definition of true love... The eternal love of God.
This song never gets old!! Thanks for letting Him sing through you Amanda
This has to be one of my favorite songs it touched me ❤️ God is good to me
Love how you can put into words and song how the Father is. So beautiful and moving.
This song brings me to tears every time. Praise the Lord for I can delight in him. God has done so much in my life. He has shown me how to live and to tell others of him. I am actually weeping right now. I feel like we need to pray more than ever as our world changes. Christians need to rise up and pray for the world, for an uprising and revelation in our broken world. For your love keeps its promises it keeps its word. Lord I dance and sing for I can stand before you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
For almost 2 whole years I have done stretches to this album before going to bed at night. I am a dancer, performer and school teacher. This album has lifted me out of the depths of suffering at times. This album has made me (literally) stretch to new heights. I know Amanda and her husband Jacob personally and I consider it an honour. They are lovely people. They are kind and so is Christ. Christ loves us in a way that is the most fulfilling love.
wow, I am just completely in awe of how God speaks through his people, I needed this sneak of the songs before the album only on my first one and I'm floored who wouldn't want to know the God we write about 🙌🙌🙌
We played this song for the first time at my church this past sunday. The spirit was so present. People cried. Good song guys y'all never cease to amaze me :)
this gives me chills everytime. i gave a witness talk tonight with the theme of "what do we give our hearts to?" and used this as my song to play afterwards, and it was so meaningful to so many people. thank you Amanda for sharing your talents!
I love how This Speaks of The Mature Love that God has for us .. Only He Can give us Such a Satisfying Love.. I Love This
Slice n Rice send me over here, big up this song. Beautiful
Amen 😭💛😭
when I hear this song I want to cry in a good way. it's just another reason why God is the BEST father ever I love my Earthly dad but God is the greatest God. just remember the we are all Sons and Daughters of the righteous God. you are loved SO much more you can ever imagine. God bless.
When the beat drops in the bridge: You don't give Your heart in pieces! Wowww 🙌👌
I just got home from listening to the Indiana Wesleyan Worship Band perform this for a week, and I’m so grateful that they introduced me to this song. When Brooke sang that bridge, I felt the Holy Spirit moving in the room, and I wasn’t the only one.
He doesn't give us his heart in pieces❤️ He Gives it All To Us!
Man, I've been feeling so lost lately , kicking some people out shutting myself from the world and God, but this song reminds me that God will always be there, his love whole as ever, ALWAYS AND FOREVER THERE FOR ME!!!! HIS PRESENCE IS EVER CLOSE ALL WE NEED TO DO IS GO TO HIM, RUN TO HIM, HES ALWAYS THERE WAITING ALL BECAUSE....OF LOVE 💘 💗, THANK YOU JESUS, I DONT DESERVE IT BUT YOU ALWAYS MAKE ME FEEL WORTH IT
the first part that says "unreserved and unrestrained your love is wild for me. Steffany sings that little part while singing im no longer slaves. That's so amazing that they said the same exact thing!! haha
+Carla Murillo It IS amazing! I wonder if it is because Amanda was writing the song at the time and shared those words with Steffany or if Steffany sang those words and Amanda loved it so much she put it in her album OR if the Lord just revealed it both to them and neither of them realize this connection lol! Either way, it is AWESOME and God is surely getting the glory!
+SHaiLuVsTaCos I don't know, this song if I'm correct was spontaneous. So maybe no longer slaves influenced it
+SHaiLuVsTaCos I was in a QnA with Bethel Music just last week, and they were sharing various stuff. I think I remember Amanda sharing how "Closer" was originally her song and journey, but Steffany's was the voice that got to carry it out to the world. In a similar way "Pieces" was written with words and concepts out of Steffany's journal, which Amanda was allowed to refine into a song :)
At one point all the different artists were sharing about their favorite worship-songs, and they definitely like each others' stuff, and listen to it a lot I'd imagine!
+Filip Helms Ålien oh my goodness!! That's so amazing! Thank you so much for telling me that. What a blessing!
I love this music video that showcases the beautiful voice of Amanda Cook.
She is a strong melodic singer with songs that tell the incredible stories of believing in Jesus Christ. I just bought her new album Brave World and love it...especially with headphones. Drifting, floating, loving, peaceful, and original. You must buy this!!!
I'm in tears. The song is just so beautiful.
These lyrics speaks volumes of God's love. It s perfect. It speaks truth.
The lyrics were absolutely beautiful.
One of the best songs I've heard in ages. So powerful.
I am amazed by the lyrics in this song and her song "Mercy" which I heard for the first time in church this morning, really got my attention. Really speak to my heart and very therapeutic. I am not normally so enthusiastic with contemporary gospel. This is special for me..
This is one of the most precious beautiful songs I have ever heard
"your love is proud to be seen with me"
So comforting to me. Thank you abba God!
I have never made it through this song without tearing up. 🙌🏻💗
This song is very beautiful - it really touches my heart... is it the same with the rest of you?"Your love is a fire". Come Holy Spirit, fill us up with your Holy Presence... Thank you Bethel Music for these beautiful Christian songs.
Marrika and Stephanie, you both read my mind. I really love this song and I am praying my future husband will have those qualities like GOD. I would also love to use it for my wedding
I just heard Amanda's version for the first time. Girl, you have been blessed from God with such a beautiful voice. Thank you for your worship that is always true and a blessing!
Thank you God, for healing my broken heart. You restore my hope and my soul.
This song has touched my heart all the time! Our almighty God is amazing!
Powerful lyrics. I particularly love the bridge and chorus.
I like everything about this song. The music, the lyrics. The idea that God gives Himself (Herself) fully. There is no reservation, no hidden agenda. This live is ours for the taking- if we desire it.
Full blown chills! Powerfully anointed.
I love you Lord. I’m overwhelmed by your love for us today. Praying for peace in the world with tears in my eyes.
"Your love is proud to be seen with me." He's a good Father! 💓
Have you heard Good Father by Housefires? I think it's something you'd like if you haven't heard it
