"Love, Divine"
Jesus, you my Lover be.
Hold me always close to thee.
Hold me in your loving arms.
Shield me, Lord, from worldly charms.
Shower me with love, divine.
Whisper softly, 'thou art mine.'
Walk beside me, hold my hand,
Till we reach that Promised Land.
Keep your arm around my back,
Help me Lord to stay on track.
Shower me with love, divine.
Whisper softly, 'thou art mine.'
When I hear your walking feet
My heart always skips a beat
For I know we'll soon embrace
My heart-filled sorrows you'll erase.
Shower me with love, divine.
Whisper softly, 'thou art mine.'
As you stroke my silvered hair
And kiss away my tears of care,
Whisper softly in my ear
'I'll never leave you, do not fear.'
Shower me with love, divine.
Whisper softly, 'thou art mine.'
When you kiss me on my cheek
Your perfumed face smells so sweet
I long for you, my lover, friend.
May this friendship never end.
Shower me with love, divine.
Whisper softly, 'thou art mine.'
Hold me close next to your heart
So that I may ne'er depart.
But when e'er from you I stray,
Draw me back by end of day.
Shower me with love, divine.
Whisper softly, 'thou art mine.'
On the cross you died for me.
You rose again on morning three.
Conquered death, my soul set free,
Thus your bride I'll always be.
Shower me with love, divine.
Whisper softly, 'thou art mine.'
