How sweet it is to be loved by You How sweet it is to be loved by You I needed the shelter of someone's arms And there You were I needed someone to help me through my ups and downs And there You were With sweet love and devotion Deeply touching my emotion I just have to stop and thank my Jesus I just have to stop and thank my Jesus How sweet it is to be loved by You How sweet it is to be loved by You I close my eyes late at night Wondering where would I be without You in my life Everything I did was just a bore Everywhere that I went I felt I had been there before But You brightened up for me all of my days With a love so sweet in so many ways I have to stop and thank my Jesus I just have to stop and thank my Jesus How sweet it is to be loved by You How sweet it is to be loved by You
