Hello wonderful people of the openmic community, I welcome you all to the hive openmic week 211 music competition.

My name is Micheal with the username@ambmicheal and this is my second entry into the competition. I want to sincerely thank @jesuslnrs and @fernanblog for their warm welcome and words of advice and encouragement on my first attempt at singing.

The theme for the week is Breathe

Today, I would be doing the cover for the song titled:

Reckless Love - Cory Asbury

I know you must be wondering the correlation between the title of this song and the theme for the week, but I tell you that if you listen to the song, you'd understand better, but before then.

In the history of creation, it has been established that God loves us so recklessly that he breathe his breath in us and gave us life, the book of Job 33:4

“The Spirit of God has made me,
And the breath of the Almighty gives me life

That been said, it is evident that God breathe his breath in us so we could have life, so we could live, what other greater love than that?

While rehearsing for this song, I kept feeling so emotional and having goosebumps as I kept reflecting on the amount of love God has for me, he knows me even before I was born, he loves me recklessly even as imperfect as I am, with so much flaws, yet he finds me worthy to keep.

You have been so, so good to me
Before I took a breath, You breathed Your life in me You have been so, so kind to me, Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God. Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine. I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away

That part of the song keeps ringing in my head even after I have done the video and as I am doing this write up and I can't phantom how he loves me so much because I don't deserve it and I couldn't even earn it, yet he gives himself away.

Please read the lyrics along as you watch my video, I hope you enjoy it as you do so.

SONG LYRICS

Before I spoke a word, You were singing over me
You have been so, so good to me
Before I took a breath, You breathed Your life in me
You have been so, so kind to me

Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God, yeah

When I was Your foe, still Your love fought for me
You have been so, so good to me
When I felt no worth, You paid it all for me
You have been so, so kind to me

Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God, yeah

There's no shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me

There's no shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me

There's no shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me

There's no shadow You won't light up
Mountain You won't climb up
Coming after me
There's no wall You won't kick down
Lie You won't tear down
Coming after me

Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine
And I couldn't earn it, I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God, yeah
