I Am So Glad That Our Father
Verse 1
I am so glad that our Father in heaven
Tells of His love in the Book He has given,
Wonderful things in the Bible I see;
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.
Tells of His love in the Book He has given,
Wonderful things in the Bible I see;
This is the dearest, that Jesus loves me.
Refrain
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me,
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves even me.
Jesus loves me, Jesus loves me,
I am so glad that Jesus loves me,
Jesus loves even me.
Verse 2
Though I forget Him and wander away,
Still He doth love me wherever I stray;
Back to His dear loving arms would I flee,
When I remember that Jesus loves me.
Still He doth love me wherever I stray;
Back to His dear loving arms would I flee,
When I remember that Jesus loves me.
Verse 3
O, if there's only one song I can sing,
When in His beauty I see the great King,
This shall my song in eternity be: "
O, what a wonder that Jesus loves me."
When in His beauty I see the great King,
This shall my song in eternity be: "
O, what a wonder that Jesus loves me."
