How Sweet It Is
Chris Tomlin Lyrics

All the stories ever told
Despite all the narratives and accounts that have ever been shared, none of them even come close to expressing the intimacy that I share with You, Lord.

All the songs the world could hold
Of all the melodies ever composed, and any that might be created, there is not a single one that can encapsulate what I feel inside my heart for You, Lord.

Not a single one comes close
While all of these different art forms are beautiful, it's still not enough to explain the depth of my love for You, and how it has transformed my life.

To tell You what's inside my soul
The thoughts and feelings of my very being cannot fully be put into words, but I'm still going to try to express them the best that I can, and sing about how sweet it is to be loved by You.

The measure of Your love so deep
Your love knows no bounds, and it can reach all people in every corner of the world; it's profound, and it's a blessing to know a love that will never fade away.

Could fill the tide of every sea
The vastness of Your love is so great that it cannot be measured, but if it were to fill every ocean, it still wouldn't be enough to show how much You care for me.

Nothing else in history
In all the ages that have passed, and whatever will come in the future, nothing else can ever come close to matching the significance of what You have done for me.

Compares to what You've done for me
You gave Your life for me on the cross, and nothing else compares to the sacrifice that You made for me, and for all of humanity.

The sun will burn its final flame
Even when the world comes to a close, and everything that we know fades away, Your love endures forever, and that will never be extinguished.

And every tear be wiped away
In the end, we know that You will wipe away every tear, and all sorrow or pain will be gone; we will know abundance and rest at last.

When I see You face to face
When I'm in Your presence, all that I'll be able to say is how sweet it is to be loved by You, and know the true beauty of Your love.

Forevermore my heart will say
For all of eternity, my heart will continue to sing out praises to You, and I will thank You, Lord, for loving me.

I'll never know a love like You
In all of creation, there is not a love like Yours, Lord; it's indescribable, and I feel blessed beyond measure to experience it every single day.
