God Really Loves Us by Crowder (feat. Dante Bowe)

KAMB strives to bring truth seeking and spiritually uplifting music to our listeners on a daily basis. It is always exciting when we can introduce a new song to our listening family, but it is especially exciting when that new song comes from several artists working together to spread God’s truth and love. God Really Loves Us is a work of collaboration between David Crowder and Dante Bowe. These men deliver words of encouragement through their co-written lyrics and remind us of God’s close role in our lives.

About Crowder and Dante Bowe

David Crowder has been a well-known figure in Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) since the early 2000s when he led the David Crowder Band. During that time, the band released several albums and received many Dove Awards for their music. In 2012, Crowder transitioned into a solo career—using Crowder as his performance name—and continued his pattern of success. He has achieved additional high placements on the Billboard Charts, released several other popular albums (such as American Prodigal) and worked in collaboration with other CCM artists, such as Dante Bowe.

Much like Crowder, Dante Bowe has also achieved great success in CCM during his music career as both a singer and songwriter. Bowe’s fame began when he released his debut album, Son of a Father, in 2017. Since then, he became a worship leader and songwriter with Bethel Music Collective and has worked in collaboration with other Christian artists—particularly Maverick City Music and Elevation Worship. However, his latest collaborative work joined him together with Crowder through their song God Really Loves Us.

God Really Loves Us

In their new song God Really Loves Us, Crowder and Bowe combine their creative forces to deliver a beautiful message about God’s love for us. They use every word to uplift the Lord and to emphasize His role as Father, Savior, and friend. Through such lyrics, we are reminded that God is everything we could ever possibly need or want. Sometimes, it’s really easy to forget the most basic and foundational truth of The Gospel: God Really Loves Us—and by making these words the name of their new song, Crowder and Bowe powerfully focus our attention on that truth.

During an interview, Crowder revealed more about how the song excites him by discussing one of his favorite parts about writing with Bowe, stating:

“And I love, too, when you’re writing and you have, like, someone in mind. Like, this is for me but it’s also for somebody in mind when I’m singing this. I’m believing something for someone. Ah man, I couldn’t be more happy and humbled by how it turned out, and honored to get to do something with you, dude.”

Song Lyrics

I’ve got a friend
Closer than a brother
There is no judgement
Oh how he loves me
I’ve got a friend

And He is my strength
He is my portion
With me in the valley
With me in the fire
With me in the storm

Let all my life testify

Hallelujah
We are not alone
God really loves us
God really loves us
Hallelujah
Oh praise, my soul
God really loves us
God really loves us

His mercy’s enough
His grace is sufficient
So come if you’re needing
Forgiveness or healing
His mercy’s enough

Oh, and this is our hope
The cross it has spoken
Death is no more
Christ is the Lord
Oh, this is our hope

Hallelujah
We are not alone
God really loves us
God really loves us
Hallelujah
Oh praise, my soul
God really loves us
God really loves us

And oh-oh, oh-oh
Sing oh-oh, oh-oh
Sing

What a Father
What a Friend
What a Savior He is (Jesus)
What a Father
What a Friend
What a Savior He is

Hallelujah
We are not alone
God really loves us
God really loves us
Hallelujah
Oh praise, my soul
God really loves us
God really loves us

What a Father
What a Friend
What a Savior He is (Jesus)
What a Father
What a Friend
What a Savior He is
What a Father
What a Friend
What a Savior He is
What a Father
What a Friend
What a Savior He is
