Every time, when I think of you,

My heart fills with joy.

My heart jumps of joy.

Oh, Jesus, Jesus, my holy Lord.

Jesus, Jesus, I love you so.

This song I made up from different parts that I composed independently. I composed the lyrics while riding the Solatrike on the west coast of Australia. Later I put the pieces together and created the whole song.
The character of the song is oriented to worship songs, which usually don't have a lot of lyrics, but do contain heaps of repetition. So, that the end doesn't sound too mantram-like, I underlaid it with a guitar solo and did some small changes.
