I LOVE YOU, LORD
Author(s): Aaron David
Songbook: Compiled LJ Songs
KeyWords: Resting in the Lord,

Oh Lord, forgive me if I say, for very love,
Thy sacred name a thousand times a day,
Oh Lord, with me abide, I rest in thee
Whate'er betide, Thy smile is my reward

Chorus:
I love Thee Lord, I know not how
My transports to control,
Thy love is like a burning fire within my very soul,
I love Thee Lord

For Thou to me art all in all,
My honor and my wealth,
My soul's eternal health, burn
On, oh love within my heart,
Burn fiercly night and day,
Till all dross is burned away,
What limit is there to this love,
Thy flight, where wilt thou stay?
On, on our Lord is sweeter far,
Today than yesterday

[Chorus]

Oh Lord, forgive me if I say, for very love,
Thy sacred name a thousand times a day,
Oh Lord, with me abide, I rest in thee
Whate'er betide, Thy smile is my reward

[Repeat Chorus Twice]

I love Thee Lord,
I love thee Lord
