[Verse 1: Chris Tomlin]
All the stories ever told
All the songs the world could hold
Not a single one comes close
To tell You what s inside my soul
[Chorus: Chris Tomlin]
How sweet it is, how sweet it is
How sweet it is to be loved by Jesus
How sweet it is, how sweet it is
How sweet it is to be loved by You
[Verse 2: Pat Barrett]
The measure of Your love so deep
Could fill the tide of eve--ry sea
Nothing else in his--tory
Compares to what You ve done for me
[Chorus: Chris Tomlin & Pat Barrett]
How sweet it is, how sweet it is
How sweet it is to be loved by Jesus
How sweet it is, how sweet it is
How sweet it is to be loved by You
[Post-Chorus: Chris Tomlin & Pat Barrett]
By You (By You, Lord)
By You, Lord (Only You, Lord)
How sweet it is (Oh-oh-oh-ohh)
How sweet it is (I ve tasted and see)
I m loved by You (The goodness of Your love, Lord)
By You, Lord (The goodness of Your love)
How sweet it is (How sweet it is)
How sweet it is
[Verse 3: Chris Tomlin]
The sun will burn its final flame
And every tear be wiped away
When I see You face to face
Forevermore my heart will say
[Chorus: Chris Tomlin & Pat Barrett]
How sweet it is (How sweet it is)
How sweet it is (How sweet it is)
How sweet it is to be loved by Jesus
How sweet it is (How sweet it is)
How sweet it is (I ll never know a love like You)
How sweet it is to be loved by You
[Outro: Chris Tomlin]
How sweet it is, how sweet it is
How sweet it is to be loved by Jesus
How sweet it is, how sweet it is
How sweet it is to be loved by You
