Lyrics:
Response: I love you, Lord, I love you, Lord, my strength.
1. I love you, Lord, my strength,
O Lord, my rock,
my fortress, and my Savior.
2. My God, my rock of refuge,
my shield, my help, my strong hold!
The Lord is worthy of all praise.
When I call I am saved from my foes.
3. Long life to the Lord, my rock!
Praised be the God who saves me.
You who gave great victories to your king,
and love shown to your anointed.
