I Am His, and He Is Mine: Reflections on God’s Everlasting Love

What does it mean to be loved before the world began?George Wade Robinson wrote "Loved with Everlasting Love" in the final season of a brief life, and the hymn carries the weight of a man who had learned to rest in something that would outlast him. In its four stanzas and one luminous refrain - I am His, and He is mine - Robinson gathered the whole gospel into a song: sovereign love, the Spirit's gentle teaching, perfect peace, transformed sight, and an unbreakable belonging that neither death nor time can touch.I Am His, and He Is Mine is the seventh volume in the Songs of the Redeemed series. Moving phrase by phrase through Robinson's beloved hymn, Elias Hartwell opens each line into the wide country of Scripture, church history, and the interior life of faith. Here the reader will find the eternal love of Jeremiah 31:3, the bridal language of the Song of Solomon, the assurance of Romans 8, and the tender images of Deuteronomy's everlasting arms - all gathered around the one truth the hymn never tires of declaring.For the weary pilgrim who has forgotten they are loved. For the anxious soul who needs arms underneath rather than arguments overhead. For every believer who has ever sung this refrain and wondered whether it was really, truly, permanently theirs -It is.
