I Love Him

In my heart I dance with my friend

Jesus, my Savior

My King and my God

I frolic like a child with my Master

Hand in hand, wind in our hair

Come if you want

Follow if you want

Or

Wallow if you want

Though how can some choose that?

What a tragedy to reject life sublime

But as for me

I will be free

My Savior and me

Oh that I may share his burdens

That I may also dance with him in the light

Naked and ashamed I came, and bleeding

Yet he touched me with his tender care

My Risen Redeemer, my Conquering King

Would that I had been there

Would to have helped with Simon of Cyrene

To bear the cross

What a privilege

To help carry the burden

To share in his sufferings

To know his pain

Ah, this is love

This is what you are looking for
