Amazing Love embraces me,
No human words define,
Enfolded in the arms of Grace
As heart to heart entwine.
I drink from Love's sweet reservoir,
I bathe in Mercy's pool,
I surface cleansed from stains of guilt,
From depths immeasur'ble.
Amazing Grace! 'Tis sweet to taste,
Love's hunger satisfies;
No human joy can e'er replace,
Nor calm the soul's heart cries.
This Love holds fast with clutching grasp,
Encircles to secure,
To bind me in this life below
With cords that will endure.
It is God's Love and God's alone,
Man's love cannot compete,
My heart content with joy instilled,
My life is made complete.

About Me
- LINDA
- I was born in the naval port of Norfolk, Virginia, the daughter of a US Navy Master Chief. With the exception of 1 year living in Boston, Mass.,and two years in Hanau, Germany, I have lived in the historic state of Virginia all my life. I now reside in the beautiful Roanoke Valley. Though raised in a Christian home, I was in my early 20’s before making a commitment of my life to Christ. Since then I have spent many years in full-time ministry. I am currently employed as an accountant with a Christian child care center in Roanoke and also serve as the Office Manager and Scheduling Coordinator for singer and songwriter Mary Rice Hopkins who resides in California.
