The song gained traction and it was not until 7 months later when one of the co-writers of the song, Cory Asbury, releas...
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the 99
I couldn't earn it
I don't deserve it
Still you give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the 99
I couldn't earn it
I don't deserve it
Still you give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
[Spontaneous]
I feel it this morning
I feel it this morning
Your love is all around me
[Bridge]
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
No lie you won't tear down
Coming after me
[Chorus]
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the 99
I couldn't earn it
I don't deserve it
Still you give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
[Spontaneous]
I feel confidence rising in the room
Yes You love us, how deep You love us
You would stop at nothing
You would stop at nothing
You're relentless
[Bridge]
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
No lie you won't tear down
Coming after me
[Chorus]
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the 99
I couldn't earn it
I don't deserve it
Still you give yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
[Spontaneous]
Your banner over us is love
Let the enemy read it, let the enemy see it
Your banner over us is love
Oh, we're here to feast, let him watch us eat
Your banner over us is love
While Your people feast, let the enemy watch us eat
Oh, Your banner over us is love
Reckless Love (Spontaneous) [Live] was written by Ran Jackson & Caleb Culver & Cory Asbury.
Bethel Music released Reckless Love (Spontaneous) [Live] on Fri May 11 2018.
In a blog post published on MultiTracks, Cory Asbury says:
When I use the phrase, ‘the reckless love of God,’ I’m not saying that God Himself is reckless. I am, however, saying that the way He loves, is in many regards, quite so. His love bankrupted heaven for you. His love doesn’t consider Himself...
