It was first published in 1978 by House of Mercy Music. Since then it has been covered by a very wide range of artists, and been used as a worship song in churches of many different denominations.
With meter 9.9.8.10, the tune is sometimes also called I LOVE YOU LORD. It has a 4/4 time signature. In the key of G, the first few notes are D G GG DG A B B_, with accompanying chords D / G / F / D7 / G.
It can be extended using other verbs like trust and serve, if required - although these are not in the published original version.
