Lyrics

The Sweetest Life We Have is You

CHORUS
All You ever wanted was to fellowship with you Lord
To be our God and we your people, But we wander in the desert
Afraid, we hide our hearts, When all we really need is You
The sweetest life we have is You.

Oh, Lord, it breaks my heart to see the ways I shut You out each day
The fellowship I could have had, to know Your care along the way,
The things You give me that I do not see, The discipline You send for me
And all along, I’m longing to see, what I had all along. CHORUS

Oh, how Your heart is turned toward us, So many times we do not see
A Father looking for His child, the way relationship could be
Our awesome, Mighty, Father God, who made us out of dust to live
What privilege is given to us, receiving what You give. CHORUS

So, let us turn our hearts toward Him, come home and fellowship this day,
Our Father loves us much, you see, So let’s not turn our hearts away. CHORUS
