From the recording Singing The Classics
Lyrics
You can take all my possessions all the things that men hold to
All the precious gifts that this old world can hold
But the love I found at Calvary far exceeds my fondest dreams
It’s a love that can’t be bought by this world’s gold
Chorus:
When you ask me why I love him why I choose to walk this way
Well his presence it grows sweeter everyday
It’s the only life worth living He has made our home complete
Oh that’s what Jesus means to me
And then each night round sundown my girls all gather round
When the clouds of gloom and doubt would cover low
And they’d say dad we really love you and my doubts just seem so small
You made our home a heaven here below
Chorus:
When you ask me why I love him why I choose to walk this way
Well his presence it grows sweeter everyday
It’s the only life worth living He has made our home complete
Oh that’s what Jesus means to me
Oh that’s what Jesus means to me
