Lyrics Ellie Holcomb

Ellie Holcomb

You Love Me Best

My mother, she holds me

When I'm weak, she consoles me

My troubles weigh on her mind

My tears fall down from her eyes

But You, You loved me better

My father, beside me

Holds out his arm to guide me

His wisdom waits in silence

He speaks and I grow quiet

But You loved me better

And there may come a day

When all other loves have gone away

Ooo-oo-oo-oo

When darkness hems me in

You'll be right where You have always been

Closer than the heart within my chest

Because You loved me best

The ring around my finger

To have and hold forever

It circles round like years that

We've walked through joys and tears

But You, but You have loved me better

And there may come a day

When all other loves have gone away

Ooo-oo-oo-oo

When darkness hems me in

You'll be right where You have always been

Closer than the heart within my chest

Because You loved me best

(You loved me best)

And there will come a day

When the loves we've lost will all be raised

Ooo-oo-oo-oo

And we will sing a song

Of the One whose loved us all along

The weary world will finally find her rest

Because You, You

You, You, have loved us best
