Johnny Mathis - Friendly Persuasion (Thee I Love) Lyrics
Thee I love, more than the meadow so green and still
More than the mulberries on the hill
More than the buds of a May apple tree, I love thee
Arms have I, strong as the oak for this occasion
Lips have I, to kiss thee too
In friendly persuasion, thee is mine
Though I don't know many words of praise
Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways
Put on your bonnet, your cape, and your glove
And come with me, for thee I love
Friendly persuasion, thee is mine
Though I don't know many words of praise
Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways
Put on your bonnet, your cape, and your glove

Thee I love, Johnny!
Been loving Johnny for over 60 years! 😘😍
Johnny’s voice here was sheer perfection. He still sounds great all these years later.
The thing that always blows me away about johnny Mathis is how his voice has never deteriorated over his career He smoked at one point but obviously stopped he protected the gift that God gave him and we're all richer for it!!
Awesome and Beautiful Johnny............... Thee I Love & always will...GOD BLESS YOU xxxxxxxxxxxx

Singing doesn't get any better than this. He was in his mid twenties when this was recorded. Just can't imagine how he puts SO MUCH FEELING into songs. Be still my heart. He's wearing my pacemaker out!
