You ask why I Love this Jesus?
You ask why I Love this Jesus?
Why I Love Him the way I do?
When the world’s turned away from his teachings
And the people who serve him are few.
It’s not the rewards Iam after
Or gifts that I hope to receive
It’s the presence that calls for commitments
It’s the spirit I trust and believe.
The Lord doesn’t shelter his faithful,
Or spare them all suffering and pain,
Like everyone else I have burdens,
And walk through my share of rain.
Yet he gives me a plan and a purpose,
And that joy only Christians have known,
I never know what comes tomorrow,
But I do know Iam never alone.
It’s the love always there when you need it;
It’s the words that redeem and inspire,
It’s the longing to ever be with him,
That burns in my heart like a fire.
So you ask why I love my Lord Jesus?
Well, friend, that’s so easy to see
But the thing that fills me with wonder is
Why Jesus loves someone like me.
