Lavished in Love
“See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.” (1 John 3:1)
Lavished in love
I am by You,
Yes, lavished in love,
Love so true,
From head to toe,
In all I hear and see,
Today, tomorrow,
Through all eternity,
In sunrays streaming
Through golden clouds above,
O Sweet Lord Jesus,
I am lavished in love…
You kiss my heart
With Your tender grace
You light my steps
With Your smiling face,
You inspire my heart
With psalms to sing,
You touch my life
With endless blessing.
So how can I feel
Anything but loved by You
In all that I am,
Through all that I do?
My heart bursts
Your love to receive,
How wondrous in You
To freely believe!
So I will sing
With eyes on You above,
With a heart of gladness
Bursting with love,
With all I am,
With all I will be,
Today, tomorrow,
Throughout eternity…
Yes, with love so pure,
Love so true…
Because lavished in love,
I am by You!
