Story behind the song
I guess the reason I like this so much is how I remember playing it on guitar. It is sort of a complicated pattern and I always enjoyed playing it. I can't wait to play it again in heaven for Christ.
Lyrics
LORD, I LOVE YOU by Jeff Leslie 7/21/98
When the midnight sky surrounds me
And has found me all alone
I think of You, I think of You
As the evening breeze blows by me
If it would fly me to Your home
Id be with You, Id be with You
Instead I sit and count the stars
And connect the ones that spell Your Name
For when I let You have my heart
You washed me like a gentle summer rain
Until the day Im where You are
Ill worship You in all I say and do
Lord, I love You
As I sit and play this song of love
Im longing for the day
I see Your face, I see Your face
And every note I sing
Is also bringing near my fate
When we embrace, when we embrace
I sing to You this never ending song of praise
To tell You that my love is ever true
Its growing even stronger for You day by day
You love me so much more and I can see it
In the miracles you do
Lord I love You
And one day the world that's here
Will disappear leaving behind
An empty sky, an empty sky
And Ill watch as You begin
As once again Your words design
A new sunrise, a new sunrise
Together we will count the stars
And connect the ones that spell Your Name
For when I let You have my heart
You washed me like a gentle summer rain
Until the day Im where You are
Ill worship You in all I say and do
Lord I love You
