"SWEET JESUS"

Sweet Jesus, lover of my soul,
You are my everything, You make me whole.
You are much sweeter than the sweetest wine.
You are so loving and You are so kind,
You are so kind.

You're the way, the Truth and the Life.
You are the Rock and You the Light.
You're the Beginning and You are the End.
You're the Bread of Life, You are My Friend,
You are my Friend.

You give me love and You give me life,
And I can't pay You back, no matter how I try.
I am Your bride for whom You died,
That I might live and love and in You abide,
In You abide.

You promised that You would never leave me nor forsake me,
And Your Words, they never pass away.
You said Your grace is sufficient for us everyday
‘Til You come and take us away,
Take us away, take us away, take us away

From this place to behold Your face.

Sweet Jesus, lover of my soul,
You are my everything, You make me whole.
You are much sweeter than the sweetest wine.
You are so loving and You are so kind,
You are so kind.
