I Truly Enjoy the Lord

Some children like ice-cream
Some women like diamond-rings
Some men love cars
 And wanna be a star
You truly, truly love the things that you do
You truly, truly love those things that you chose
You truly, truly lust after-things of this world
What’s new under the sun, nothing

I truly enjoy The Lord
He’s peace, love, the chosen one
Full of grace and power
I believe in Him I gotta
I truly enjoy Him

He brought me out from a mighty long way
Saved my repented soul this day
I truly enjoy, I truly enjoy, I truly enjoy the Lord

His Father created me
His Father created the trees
His Father parted the Red Sea
His Father my dad the very presents of  triad/trinity

You truly, truly love the things that you do
You truly, truly love those things that you chose
You truly, truly lust after-things of this world
What’s new under the sun, nothing

I truly enjoy The Lord
He’s peace, love, the chosen one
Full of grace and power
I believe in Him I gotta
I truly enjoy Him

Some boys love to play in the mud
Some girls love to play with their dolls
Teenagers think their adults
Because like grown-ups have the same parts
Some religious denominations say your not saved
Unless you don’t do what they Say!!??
You truly, truly lust after-things of this world
What’s new under the sun, nothing

I truly enjoy The Lord
He’s peace, love, the chosen one
Full of grace and power
I believe in Him I gotta
I truly enjoy Him
I truly enjoy the Lord
I truly enjoy the Lord

He brought me out from a mighty long way
Saved my repented soul this day
I truly enjoy, I truly enjoy, I truly enjoy the Lord
