"The Best" lyrics

I'd like to write for you a song of songs
Convince you all that you should come along
But I'll probably never live that long
Jesus died for you

I sit around and I make up clever lines
I sing them out as they dance through my mind
But sweeter love than His you'll never gonna find
You see, Jesus died for you

And the best thing I can tell you
Is God loves you
I can say that from my heart
And know it's true

The best thing I can tell you
Is God loves you
And He sent his only Son
As living proof

I could talk all night, til I'm blue in the face
Present my argument, state my case
But I'd rather tell you people about His wondrous grace
Jesus died for you

I could talk about theology
And get in to some deep philosophy
But it all comes down to what was done on Calvary
Jesus He died for you

You see, the best thing I can tell you
Is God loves you
I can say that from my heart
I know it's true

The best thing I can tell you
Is God loves you
And He sent his only Son
As living proof

And the best thing I can tell you
Is God loves you
I can say that from my heart
I know it's true

The best thing I can tell you
Is God loves you
And He sent his only Son
As living proof
Yes He did
