Lord, I thank you for your love
How can I express
The peace and quietness
When you drew me close
My ears began to hear
The words of love
That your Son spoke so dear
How precious and clear
And Lord, I thank you for your love
How can I express
The peace and quietness
That calmed my raging soul
My eyes could clearly see
Your Son was nailed
And bleeding for me
Oh how could it be
And Lord, I thank you for your love
How can I express
Oh the peace and quietness
When you drew me close
And not that I loved you
You loved me first
And all things were new
How wondrously true
