I wanna tell a story
Of a love affair am in
We met one fateful morning
He said he's been trying to win my heart
He told me that he loves me
Even before I knew he did
Somehow I fell in love too
I gave my heart, my all to him
Olowo ori mi Jesu (My lord and lover Jesus)
The lover of my soul
O can't you see that
I've fallen so in love with you
Olowo ori mi Jesu (My lord and lover Jesus)
The lover of my soul
O can't you see that
I've fallen so in love with you
O what joy that I now have
What peace, what delight
It feels so good to know that
Someone so big and great is mine
O what joy that I now have
What peace, what delight
My future is so bright
I know my best is yet to come
