Oh Lord, I Really Do Love You. Poem by Reginald Walker

Once more I bow my head before you.
My Lord, you are my very close friend.
No one else can love me like you do.
You have cleansed me completely from sin.

You have strengthen me with your care.
You have healed every illness in me.
Through my sickness, you were there.
You told me just how things really would be.

I listened and things have turned out right.
You woke me up at the start of the day.
You strengthen me with your might.
You guided me safely along life’s way.

You have supplied my every need.
Therefore, I place my trust only in you.
Your word grew in my heart as a little seed.
Your Spirit helped me to remain true.

I thank you, my Lord and my King.
I thank you for all that you do.
I thank you for the joys that life brings.
I thank you for the sorrows, too.

No matter what my fate in life may be,
I will always lift my prayers to you.
You kept me safe then set me free.
O Lord, I really do love you.
