“We love because he first loved us.” ~ 1 John 4:19
Smiling so wide,
Singing so free,
Delighting so deep
In Your love for me,
Dancing for joy,
Clapping with praise,
Marveling Your grace
Abounding always,
Sharing with love,
Speaking of You,
“Jesus” beats in my heart
In all I do.
Why this song,
Why this sweet delight
Filling my heart
Through day and night?
Because You, my Jesus,
Love me so;
Everywhere I look
Your love does show.
In the birds flying,
In the waves crashing,
In the rainbow stretching,
In the stream splashing,
Yes, everything ‘round
Shows me Your love
Flowing forever
From Heaven above.
So I dance for joy,
I clap with praise,
I marvel Your grace
Now and always.
Yea, I smile so wide,
I sing so free,
Because Jesus, O Jesus,
You love me.
