Hello! I am looking to find the complete lyrics to a song I used to sing in church as a child. There are two other verses that I cannot remember. I know the first stanza and chorus displayed below. This is a really neat website by the way. Thanks in advance :) If anyone has the hymnal arrangement for this I would be interested in getting that also!

1st verse:
Heavenly love, was all that could help me,
I was astray, so sad and alone,
I looked above, my burdens all left me,
Now I can say, that heaven's my home.

Chorus:
Heavenly Love, the love of my Lord,
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield,
giving me light, in darkness of night,
Heavenly love, heavenly love.

Hi this is Minnie
This is so kewl..my sister and I used to sing this together in church too...I am still trying to find the other verses...but will try to send what I can remember so far...may not be all
verse 2
Troubles of earth so often o're take me
shadows of night with heartache and care
There is a power I know will deliver
Feeling my need Jesus is there.
(again not sure if completely correct am trying to do it from memory...lol)
hope this helps...am still pondering verse 3 and will respond again with that as soon as I can recall...
God Bless...
It has been sooo long but we used to sing it so often...I am just so surprised at myself at not remembering it better....LOL

2. troubles of earth, so often o'er take me burdens of life,
with heartache and care, heavenly love will never forsake me, filling my need,
Jesus is there

3. when I shall stand, at jordan's dark river, shadows of night are gathering above, there is a pow'r, I know will deliver, heavenly love, heavenly love

Heavenly love was all that I needed,I was a stray so lost and alone
i looked above, my burdens all left me,
Now i can say, Heavens my home

(chorus )
Heavenly love, The love of my Lord
Lifting above, for he is my sword and shield
Giving me light
Through darkness and night
heavenly love,heavenly love

When I shall stand at heavens bright kingdom,
My eyes shall see, my heavenly Lord,
My heart will lift my burdens will leave me,
Then I can say, heavens my home

Repeat chorus

Shadows of night, are gathering above
There is a power, I know will deliver
