SWEETER THAN HONEY



Lyrics by Jeff Nicholson ©2004
Parody of the Song “Danny’s Song” by Loggins and Messina

When there’s trials
Well life doesn’t seem to be much fun
Sometimes we come undone
And we just can’t see the One
And then we try and free ourselves
But we mess it up
We feel like givin’ up
And end with a deeper cut

But Jesus’ love…is sweeter than honey
Worth more than gold and lots of money
And when there’s rain and pain
There’s hope from above…
And when it storms and hits high tide
I know He hears me when I cry
He helps me, and He’s…my King…
And my soul’s delight

Didn’t know the debt I owed
I was terrified, oh I was afraid to die
Then I heard Your voice inside
And You showed me how Your Son
Well He took my shame
You set my heart aflame
Now I’ll never be the same…

Now I’m mesmerized by His grace and His love for me
He knows what’s best for me
I don’t need no astrology
And the bride He’s given me loves the Lord you see…
To Him she bends her knee
She’s gotta sweet theology

And in those times in life when it seems all the doors are shut
It feels like a hopeless rut
It’s then we just keep lookin’ up
And then sometimes He gives a sign and His will is shown
And we know we’re known
He shows us we’re His very own
