[Chorus:]
You are my love and my light
You are my purpose for living
You are my hope in the night
My reason for singing
You bring the joy to my life
(And You're)Making it better and better
And I will give thanks forever and ever [x2]
Will we ever know
What we have been given
He has chosen us and called us His own
Flowing from His throne
There is a river
Bringing life and health wherever it goes
[Chorus:]
You are my love and my light
You are my purpose for living
You are my hope in the night
My reason for singing
You bring the joy to my life
(And You're)Making it better and better
And I will give thanks forever and ever
We will bless You name
Always and ever
And offer up the sacrifices of praise
Teach us Lord we pray
To live in Your presence
Make us more and more
Like You everyday
[Chorus:]
You are my love and my light
You are my purpose for living
You are my hope in the night
My reason for singing
You bring the joy to my life
(And You're)Making it better and better
And I will give thanks forever and ever
Oh oh oh
What a joy to know
Oh oh oh
Our Father loves us so
[Chorus:]
You are my love and my light
You are my purpose for living
You are my hope in the night
My reason for singing
You bring the joy to my life
(And You're)Making it better and better
And I will give thanks forever and ever [x2]
And I will give thanks
Forever and ever [x2]
