Brian And Jenn Johnson - Oh How I Love You Lyrics

Oh How I Love You is a simple worship song of thanks and love. The opening lines say "I come to You with a thankful heart," repeated, and then with a heart of praise to the Ancient of Days. The bridge confesses that the singer could never begin to say how much God loves the singer, repeating the thought for emphasis.

The chorus is the response: the singer loves Him, sings His praise, cannot live without Him, and calls Him the reason for the song. The themes follow Psalm 100:4 on entering His gates with thanksgiving, Daniel 7:9 on the Ancient of Days, and 1 John 4:19 on loving because He first loved. The unhurried pace, short repeated lines and plain wording make the song easy for a congregation to learn and sing with feeling, and the tone is warm, intimate and grateful, which suits a quiet moment of response after a sermon or a time of extended worship.
