‘Spend All My Life With Jesus’

I’ve often enjoyed the way some spiritual/blues singers and songs use a basic rhythm and a great deal of repitition to create a song that almost anyone can sing and enjoy. Truthfully, this song could easily go on forever, verses are easy to add and any verse’s lines ending could easily be added to whatever words you choose to put in the line repetition. It becomes even easier to do if a leader sings the line ending and the audience joins in the repeating words. This is my simple attempt to replicate one of these tunes.

‘Spend All My Life With Jesus’

I wanna, spend all my life with Jesus, yes I do
I wanna, spend all my life with Jesus, yes it’s true
I wanna, spend all my life with Jesus, knowing that he loves and frees us
I wanna, spend all my life with Jesus, yes I do

I’m gonna, thank God for all his mercy, yes I am
I’m gonna, thank God for all his mercy, that’s my plan
I’m gonna, thank God for all his mercy, he forgives me and assures me
I’m gonna, thank God for all his mercy, yes I am

I’m gonna, be with my Lord forever, glad to say
I’m gonna, be with my Lord forever, come what may
I’m gonna, be with my Lord forever, praising Him, it can’t get better
I’m gonna, be with my Lord forever, glad to say

Come on and, raise your hands and clap His glory, join me now
Come on and, raise your hands and clap His glory, make it loud
Come on and, raise your hands and clap His glory, tell the whole wide world His story
Come on and, raise your hands and clap His glory, join me now
