Lyrics
LOVE SO SWEET
by Patrick W. Carr
My mother was a talker, my dad the silent type
They took us kids to Sunday School and lived a Christian life
We went to church each Sunday, we never missed a week
And Jesus smiled upon us and gave us LOVE SO SWEET
My love was only eighteen, and I was twenty-five
I barely made the money to keep us both alive
We struggled and went hungry, and tried to make ends meet
Still Jesus smiled upon us and gave us LOVE SO SWEET
Oo, LOVE SO SWEET
You find you can?t live up to what it?s worth
Oo, LOVE SO SWEET
you can hardly find it anywhere on earth
The days are getting shorter, the weather?s turning cold
We have a little daughter, she?s only ten months old
She?s loving and forgiving, her trust is so complete
She?s just like Jesus said to be, she gives us LOVE SO SWEET
When our little girl is grown, and my love and I get old
We?ll look back on the times we had, memories made of gold
The smiles, the tears, the laughter, the love we had so deep
?Cause Jesus smiled upon us and gave us LOVE SO SWEET
And when this life is over, our Maker we will meet
We?ll stand there at the judgement bar and account for all our deeds
And there upon the right hand the Master Jesus sits
And still he smiles upon us and gives us LOVE SO SWEET
Oo, LOVE SO SWEET
you find you can?t live up to what it?s worth
Oo, LOVE SO SWEET
you can hardly find it anywhere on earth
(repeat chorus)
