So Sweet His Love

 

When I look to Heaven, up there above,
I think of my Lord Jesus; so sweet His love.
I think of all tomorrows, as yesterdays are gone,
I think of His love, when I think of home.

I see a little babe born, all sweet and true.
I think of who sent it Lord; then I think of you.
I think on the many wonders He performs each day.
We look in our hearts for Jesus and know He is the way.

He said He would be beside us, along in life,
Then as I feel His love shine down, I feel no strife.
He was with us yesterday. He looked down from above.
I think of Heaven and then so sweet His love.

Thinking of the rain and sunshine and the sky so blue,
I know in His sweet love that (He is), to us so true.
He put stars in the sky to glitter in the night, above
The moon to shine down upon us, oh so sweet His love.

The earth we now live on, made by thy hand alone,
One day we shall see, Thee coming to bring us home.
Our hearts and souls lie with Jesus, there above
How could we not, when we think on, so sweet His love?
