VERSE 1
Anduve por el mundo (I went looking in the world)
Buscando la verdad (Searching to find truth)
Pero nada lleno el vacío (But everything left me dry)
Siempre queriendo mas (Always wanting more)
Hay algo nuevo en Ti (There’s something new in you)
PRE-CHORUS
Salvacion encontrado (Salvation is found)
Agarrado de tu mano (Holding onto your hands)
Mi esperanza, esta en ti (You are my hope)
El camino y la verdad
Nueva vida tu me das
Jesús Tu nunca me dejaras (You’ve never let me go)
CHORUS
Que Rico Es (This is bliss)
Que Rico Es (This is bliss)
Que Rico Es (This is bliss)
Que Rico Es (This is bliss)
VERSE 2
Mi corazón se alegra (My heart is full of joy)
Por que te encontré (Because I found you)
Tu presencia es mi consuelo (Your presence fills me up)
Junto a ti me siento completo (It’s so great that I just want more)
Envuelveme en ti (It’s intertwined with me)
BRIDGE
No hay un amor mas profundo (There’s no other love more profound)
Es tan grande que llena mi mundo (So big it fills the whole earth)
Tu gozo me llena y me completa (Your grace leaves me speechless)
Tu eres mi mejor regalo
Yo no me soltaré de tu mano
Todo mi pasado te lo haz llevado
