I keep hearing this medley in my ears
I keep feeling his presence so near

Like the voice of an angel (yeah yeah yeah yeah oh)
It minister to me

A love song
Beautiful song
A love song
Sweet simple song

Meaning & Inspiration
Jesus Is A Love Song uses music as a picture of the Lord's presence. The lyrics describe hearing a medley that keeps repeating, feeling His presence near, and music so sweet, rich and complete, like the voice of an angel, that ministers to the singer. The refrain calls it a love song, a beautiful song and a sweet simple song.
The title names Jesus as the love song, and the verses ask whether it is a dream or reality, comparing the sound to an orchestra. The idea of the Lord as a song fits Exodus 15:2 where the Lord is called strength and song, Zephaniah 3:17 where He rejoices over His people with singing, and Psalm 40:3. The lyrics do not mention Jesus beyond the title, so the song reads as a poetic description of His nearness. Short and melodic, it is built around repetition, and its tone is tender and reflective.
