Nothin' Sweeter

  • There's been so many times I got it so wrong
    And a couple that I got just right
    I've seen the view from the top of the world
    And the sorrow by the bitter graveside

    I've seen some prayers get answered
    And I've heard my share of no's
    But there's never been a moment that You let me go

    I've been uptown, I've been downtown
    In the spotlight, I've been broke down
    I've seen so much, might not know much
    But there ain't nothin' sweeter than His love
    In the good times, through the hard times
    Filled my pockets full of sunshine
    I've seen so much of the good stuff
    But there ain't nothin' sweeter than His love

    I graduated from the school o' hard knocks
    But there's some lessons that I haven't quite learned
    One thing I know is You've been so kind to me
    Sweeter than a man could ever deserve

    'Cause we got that love from up above
    And if it's all we ever get, we got enough (we got enough)
    Better hold on tight, y'all, no matter what
    We got that 'never gonna leave us' kinda love (oh-oh-oh-oh)

    I've been uptown, I've been downtown
    In the spotlight, I've been broke down
    I've seen so much, might not know much
    But there ain't nothin' sweeter than His love
    In the good times, through the hard times
    Filled my pockets full of sunshine
    I've seen so much of the good stuff
    But there ain't nothin' sweeter than His love

    Nothin' sweeter, no
    No, there ain't nothin' sweeter than His love

    That sunset on those Tennessee hills got me counting a blessing or two
    Those moments in time, the best in my life, they all come from You (You, You, You)

    I've been uptown, I've been downtown
    In the spotlight, I've been face down
    I've seen so much, might not know much
    But there ain't nothin' sweeter than His love
    In the good times, through the hard times
    Filled my pockets full of sunshine
    I've seen so much of the good stuff
    But there ain't nothin' sweeter than His love

    Ain't nothin' sweeter, nothin' sweeter, no
    Ain't nothin' sweeter, nothin' sweeter, no
    Ain't nothin' sweeter, nothin' sweeter
    No, there ain't nothin' sweeter than His love Writer/s: Benji Cowart, Jordan Mohilowski, Toby Mckeehan
