Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, what mystery divine
You're the love which cannot cease
I am Your's and You are mine
I am Your's and You are mine forever
Never taken from Your side, my Father
I would be with You forever
Things that once were wildly lost
Cannot now disturb my rest
Held in everlasting arms
Resting on my Father's chest, oh
I am Your's and You are mine forever
Never taken from Your side, my Father
I would be with You forever
Oh, it's a life forever here
Doubt and care, and self was nigh
While you whisper in my ear
I am Your's and You are mine
I am Your's and You are mine forever
Never taken from Your side, my Father
I would be with You forever
I am Your's and You are mine forever
Never taken from Your side, my Father
I would be with You forever
I would be with You forever
I am Your's and You are mine forever
Never taken from Your side, my Father
I would be with You forever
