How Deep How Wide

In July, my wife was ordained as a pastor! The following text was the preaching text for the worship service:

Ephesians 3:14-19 TNIV
For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. 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 Lord's people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

What a beautiful passage! So, I ended up writing a song for Sara's ordination. It's called "How Deep How Wide"

Great song Jason. I am using this text tomorrow for a wedding and your song fits so well not only for an ordination, but also for a wedding!
