Lyrics

Heavenly love, was all that could help me
I was a stray, so sad and alone
I looked above, my burdens all left me
Now I can say, heavens my home
Heavenly love, the love of my Lord
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield
Giving me light, in darkness of night
Heavenly love, heavenly love
Troubles of earth, so often o’er take me
Burdens of life, with heartache and care
Heavenly love, will never forsake me
Filling my need, for Jesus is there
Heavenly love, the love of my Lord
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield
Giving me light, in darkness of night
Heavenly love, heavenly love
When I shall stand, at Jordan’s dark river
Shadows of night, are gathering above
There is a power, I know will deliver
Heavenly love, oh, heavenly love
Heavenly love, the love of my Lord
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield
Giving me light, in darkness of night
Heavenly love, heavenly love
Heavenly love, the love of my Lord
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield
Giving me light, in darkness of night
Heavenly love, heavenly love
Oh, Heavenly love, oh, the love of my Lord
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield
Giving me light, in darkness of night
Heavenly love, heavenly love
Oh, Heavenly love, oh, the love of my Lord
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield
Giving me light, in darkness of night
Heavenly love, heavenly love
Oh, Heavenly love, oh, the love of my Lord
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield
Giving me light, in darkness of night
Heavenly love, heavenly love
