The King of love is my de light, His eyes are (Bb)fire, His face is light, the First and (C7)Last, the Liv ing One, His name is (F)Je

(Bb)sus.

And from His (F)mouth there comes a sound that shakes the (Bb)earth and splits the ground, and yet this (C7)voice is life to me, the voice of (F)Je

(Bb)sus.

And (F)I will sing my songs of love, (Gm)call ing out a cross the earth, the (Bb)King has come, the King of love has (F)come.

And trou bled minds can know His peace, (Gm)cap tive hearts can be re leased, the (Bb)King has come, the King of love has (F)come.

My lov er’s breath is sweet est wine, I am His (Bb)prize and He is mine.

How can a (C7)sin ner know such joy?

Be cause of (F)Je

(Bb)sus.

The wounds of (F)love are in His hands, the price is (Bb)paid for sin ful man.

Ac cept ed (C7)child, for giv en son, be cause of (F)Je

(Bb)sus.

And (F)I will sing my songs of love, (Gm)call ing out a cross the earth, the (Bb)King has come, the King of love has (F)come.

And trou bled minds can know His peace, (Gm)cap tive hearts can be re leased, the (Bb)King has come, the King of love has (F)come.

My lov er’s

And (C)my de sire is to have You near.

Lord, You (Gm)know that You are wel come here.

Be (C)fore such love, be fore such grace, I will (Gm)let the walls (F)come (Bb)down.

And (F)come.
