DEAR JESUS (Steve Thomas)

This is considered to be Fro's most widely-performed work, from an echoing local churches in the New Orleans area to a very upbeat suburban church in West Palm Beach, Florida; to missionary Fiji Island and Thailand; to a quiet but enthusiastic youth choir in Catigbian, Bohol, Philippines. This song has also been played over and over at FM Station DYRD in Tagbilaran City (Bohol, Philippines), especially during Holy Week celebrations.

Performed and produced by Steve Thomas

Recorded at Lakeside Productions, Nashville, TN

DEAR JESUS

Words and music by Rev. J. Roel Lungay

1
Dear Jesus, I love you
How I don't know
Please show me the way.

2
Dear Jesus, my Savior,
My friend, my Lord.
You're all that I want
And all that I need.

Refrain:
Take me with you, Oh Lord,
Carry me through
For in you, only in you
Can I find my peace.
Keep me in your goodness, Lord
This I pray
Yes, in you, only in you,
Can I find my peace.

3
Dear Jesus, I love you
I come to you
Take good care of me.

4
Dear Jesus, I give you
My self, my soul -
All that I am and all that I'll be.

(Repeat Refrain twice)

Coda:
Dear Jesus, I thank you
And I love you!
