I LOVE YOU, LORD

Composed by Alyssa

Oh (E)Lord, forgive me if I (C#m)say, for very love,
Thy (A)sacred name a thousand times a (B)day,
Oh (E)Lord, with me a(C#m)bide, I rest in thee
What(A)e'er betide, Thy smile is my re(B)ward

Chorus:
I love Thee (E)Lord, I know not (C#m)how
My trans(A)ports to con(B)trol,
Thy (E)love is like a (C#m)burning fire with(A)in my very (B)soul,
I love Thee (E)Lord (C#m)-(A)-(B)

For (E)Thou to me art all in (C#m)all,
My honor and my (A)wealth,
My soul's eternal (B)health, burn
(E)On, oh love within my (C#m)heart,
Burn fiercly night and (A)day,
Till all dross is burned a(B)way,
What limit (E)is there to this (C#m)love,
Thy (A)flight, where wilt thou (A)stay?
On, (E)on our Lord is (C#m)sweeter far,
To(A)day than yester(B)day

[Chorus]

Oh (E)Lord, forgive me if I (C#m)say, for very love,
Thy (A)sacred name a thousand times a (B)day,
Oh (E)Lord, with me a(C#m)bide, I rest in thee
What(A)e'er betide, Thy smile is my re(B)ward

[Repeat Chorus Twice]

I love Thee (E)Lord,(C#m)-(A)-(B)
I love thee (E)Lord (C#m)-(A)-(B)-(E)
