Lyrics

It's so lovely here with You
It's so lovely
To, to
It's just a simple love song to You

What a joy to be in Your presence
It is so lovely here with You
Jesus, Your presence gives me peace of mind
Nowhere else I'd rather be

That's why I love You
I've come to worship You
That's why I love You
Do you love Him? How many of you love Him? Is it just me?
I've come to worship
Is the presence of God real to you? Listen

What a joy to be in Your presence, I like this line
It is so cozy here with You, ah-ha-ha-ha-ha
Jesus, Your presence gives me so much joy
Nothing in this world will do the same

That's why I love You, do you love Him?
I've come to worship, so can we sing it together?
What a joy, sing

What a joy to be in Your presence
It is so lovely here with You (It's the best place in the world)
Jesus, Your presence gives me peace of mind
Nowhere else I'd rather be (That's why I love You)

That's why I love You (I've come to worship)
I've come to worship You (That's why I love You)
That's why I love You (Oh, I've come to worship)
I've come to worship You (What a joy, what a joy, oh)

What a joy to be in Your presence
It is so lovely here with You
Jesus, Your presence gives me peace of mind (Oh)
Nowhere else I'd rather be (What a joy, what a joy, sing one more time, sing)
What a joy to be in Your presence (Only the lovers will stand and just love Him, only the lovers)
It is so lovely here with You (Jesus, Your presence)
Jesus, Your presence gives me peace of mind (Nowhere else)
Nowhere else I'd rather be (One more time, say, "What a joy")
What a joy to be in Your presence (It is so cozy here, ah)
It is so cozy here with You (You dey feel am?)
Jesus, Your presence gives me peace of mind
Nowhere else I'd rather be (That's why I love You)

That's why I love You (I've come to worship)
I've come to worship You (That's why I love You)
That's why I love You (Oh, I've come to worship)
I've come to worship You (Now let's sing our own song to him, oh)

Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh (Hey)
Woah
Jesus, Your presence is the best place to be, yeah
Woah, ayy
No place I'd rather be
Your presence is my best place
Your presence is my safe place
Your presence is-is my shelter, is my shelter, ayy
Say, "What a joy, what a joy", say

What a joy to be in Your presence
It is so lovely here with You (Jesus, Your presence)
Jesus, Your presence gives me peace of mind
Nowhere else I'd rather be (Say, "What a joy to be so cozy")
What a joy to be in Your presence (It is so cozy here with You)
It is so cozy here with You (Jesus, Your presence)
Jesus, Your presence gives me peace of mind
Nowhere else I'd rather be (Ooh)

That's why I love You (I've come to worship)
I've come to worship You (That's why I love You)
That's why I love You (I live to worship You)
I live to worship You

Come on, bless His Name, bless His Name
Hallelujah
