Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I am leaning, on you Jesus
With all my longing, laid before you now
And all I've needed, is you Jesus
And all my wanting, you satisfied somehow

There is no higher worth, in all the earth
But to love you, how I love you
No greater call, no life at all
But to love you, how I love you

Jesus, you're my desire
Purify me, 'till I burn for you alone

There is no higher worth, in all the earth
But to love you, how I love you
No greater call, no life at all
But to love you, how I love you
No higher worth, in all the earth
But to love you, how I love you
No greater call, no life at all
But to love you, how I love you

How I love you, love you, Jesus, Jesus
How I love you, love you, Jesus
Oh how I love you, I love you
How I love you, love you, Jesus
How I love you, how I love you
Love you, Jesus, oh how I love you
