Gov - I Love You (feat. Shanequa Johnson) Lyrics

See a lot of people claim that they love you
And even more claim that they know you
Love is an action verb
It can't be told it must be showed
Just like you did by letting your only son die for us
He paid that price and took that burden away from us
But enough about your love, this is about my love for you
There's not enough words to express the love that I have for you
See it started when I was young playing around in church with the pastor's son
We would put water under our eyes to make it look like we had cried
But when I knelt down I felt something deep on the inside
That I could not hide, the last one at the altar
This time it was real tears coming down my eyes
And I would not and could not rise until my mother came and got me
I never forgot that day
Cause that was the first time you touched me
And the day of my rebirth at a young age
Lord
I love you just because of who you are to me
Even if you don't do anything for me
Now a lot of you know my testimony and how God delivered me from suicide
Even though I thought I was ready to die
He decided to keep me alive
But now I'm gonna get really personal
And take it to another level
Because he saved my marriage and I didn't understand why at first
Cause I had this thirst about just getting away
And even running away
But god let some things come to the light that I thought was in the dark
That would have drove any couple apart
But instead you used it to bring us closer to you
And then closer to each other
Lord your closer to me than any other
And this is why I love
This is also why I give you all the honor, praise
And all of the glory
Lord
I love you just because of who you are to me
Even if you don't do anything for me
Lord
I love you just because of who you are to me
Even if you don't do anything for me
Lord
I love you just because of who you are to me
Even if you don't do anything for me
