Lyrics
I sent my only son to be with whom I love
You are all I want the wonder of it all
From heaven’s gates you catch my gaze
And I love you in the morning, in the noon time, in the evening
You're my one thing
You're my dearest
Here's my love note, can you hear it
A dinner for two just me and you let's take some time to sit down and dine
I broke my bread and poured out my wine I did what it took to make you my bride
I'm bringing you back to the garden, back where it all started
All of your sins have been pardoned
Now we just get to be together, now we just get to be together
Now we just get to be together, now we just get to be together
And I love you in the morning, in the noon time, in the evening
You're my one thing
You're my dearest
Here's my love note, can you hear it
And I love you in the morning, in the noon time, in the evening
You're my one thing
You're my dearest
Here's my love note, can you hear it
Can you hear it, do you hear it
Writing words over you, singing songs over you
I'm above you, I’m beneath you, I’m before you, I’m behind you
I'm above you, I’m beneath you, I’m before you, I’m behind you
I'm above you, I’m beneath you, I’m before you, I’m behind you
I'm above you, I’m beneath you, I’m before you, I’m behind you
I'm all around you, I'm all around you
Baby I’m all around you, I'm all around you
I'm above you, I’m beneath you, I’m before you, I’m behind you
I'm above you, I’m beneath you, I’m before you, I’m behind you
I'm above you, I’m beneath you, I’m before you, I’m behind you
I'm above you, I’m beneath you, I’m before you, I’m behind you
I'm all around you, I'm all around you
I'm all around you, I'm all around you
And I love you in the morning, in the noon time, in the evening
You're my one thing
You're my dearest
Here's my love note, can you hear it
And I love you in the morning, in the noon time, in the evening
You're my one thing
You're my dearest
Here's my love note, can you hear it

Meaning & Inspiration
The song presents divine love as a personal message of welcome, pardon, and restored fellowship. Its images of the only Son, broken bread, poured wine, and a bride gather around Christ’s sacrificial care without turning the lyric into a formal theological outline. The repeated love note gives the piece an intimate voice, while the return to the garden suggests communion with God renewed after sin has been forgiven.
The language also pictures God’s presence surrounding the beloved from every direction. That idea closely echoes the assurance of Psalm 139, where no place lies beyond God’s presence, while the meal and bride imagery recalls the New Testament’s descriptions of Christ’s covenant love. Repetition keeps the focus on nearness rather than achievement: pardon makes togetherness possible, and divine affection remains constant through morning, noon, and evening. The result is a worship song centered on grace, belonging, and the joy of being held within God’s faithful love.
