Gord Lang - Rose of Sharon lyrics
rate meDo not entreat me to ever leave You
Or say from Your presence that I should depart
Who else could speak words of life everlasting
That heal my body – and my broken heart
CHORUS:
Rose of Sharon, how sweet the fragrance
That’s filling my spirit with hope anew
Your words of life are much sweeter than honey
And more refreshing than the morning dew.
Forever I’ll stay in the place You are dwelling
I long to discover my resting place there
For when I experience the strength of Your presence
Then every burden, I’m able to bear.
You’ve been ever-present through all of my trials
A Friend when I’m lonely, a Helper indeed,
The Healer of bruises, my Comfort in sorrow
You strengthen each weakness, and meet every need.
More precious than silver or beautiful diamonds
The truth of Your value could never be told
There’s no earthly measure with which to compare You
More priceless than rubies – much purer than gold.
