Now everyday I learn such things
As hard times come to stay;
I watch to see who stands by me
and those who turn away!

Although we've seen some tough times now,
as each one's come and gone;
I realized this, you've always been
beside me all along!

Oh, yes, you've seen both sides of me,
the good sides and the bad;
You've held me when life strikes me down
when broken heart and sad!

I know you've seen life push me 'round,
at times down to the ground;
But as you reached your hand to me
such strength in you I found!

You've shown me love all through my life
you've stood so strong and bold;
You never left me once in life
you're always there to hold!

I'll try to return this love to you
you've shown me everyday;
I've seen the best example now
to love in such a way!

If someone asks, I'll tell 'em quick,
your love has seen me through;
I've never known what true love was
until me heart found you!

Will you ever see your doing wrong
by the ones who love you dear?
Will you feel you've been successful
if not one of them is near?

Will you feel you've reached the big time now
with your money and some fame?
Will you watch it fall to pieces
then just openly cast the blame?

Will you realize now a thing on Earth
you can take through Heaven's door?
Will you ever see that your family is
longing for your love and more?

Will you ever be there for them once
as the go through storms in life?
Will you never feel a bit so bad
as they bear their pain and strife?

Will you ever see you failed them all
with the sinful life you trod?
Will you open up your eyes to see
life is nothing without God?

Will you ask me God above you to
come into your heart to stay?
Will you follow as He leads you
walk beside Him everyday?

Will you ask your family's forgiveness for
ll the hurt and pain you caused?
Will you watch Him mend their broken hearts
as you take a knee to pause?

Will you give tour life all to Him now
as He takes away their fears?
Will you hold them close forever till
from Heaven, He appears?

Will you finally see love you can't compare
with a life you've ever had;
Will you stand and be what He'd have you be
loving husband, father and dad!

You've been through hard times in your life,
not one thing else feels right;
Remember now, I'm here for you
to help you win this fight!

You're not alone, not anymore,
it's you and me now, girl;
I'm by you now to hold your hand
while walking through this world!

I'll stand beside, protect you now,
to keep you safe from harm;
To hold you oh-so-close to me
in these big lovin' arms!

So keep your head held up so high,
just listen when I say;
We may be many miles apart,
yet never far away!

It's not so very long from now,
I'll show you everything;
You'll feel these words I'm saying now
safe and sheltered 'neath my wings!

This pure desire that burns inside
will always be enough;
To walk through fire to get to you,
to fan these flames of love!

Not long ago I lost a love,
she left me on my own;
She turned this heart so full of love,
into a heart of stone!

I felt I'd always be alone,
I'd never find real love;
Till you appeared now in my life,
as sent from Heaven above!

You waltzed into my life one day,
oh girl, you left your mark;
With just few tender words you spoke
you softened this 'ole heart!

You smiled at me that gorgeous smile,
you know it wasn't fair;
Those baby blues pierced deep inside,
I fell in love right there!

A stroke of luck, an answered prayer
too good as though it seems;
I'd finally found that girl I saw,
the Angel in my dreams!

I'm sitting here to write these words,
to think of only you;
Your beauty blows my mind each day,
those precious eyes so blue!

Those bright red lips so soft and sweet,
your long and flowing hair;
Angelic features at their best,
has Heaven sent you here?

With gentle touch, you show your love,
slight brush of tender hand;
Can soften even hardest heart,
to melt a full grown man!

With softly spoken gentle word,
you set my mind at ease;
And every time you say my name,
you bring me to my knees!

You bring such strength and inner peace,
through sorrow, pain and strife;
You show me love I've never seen,
since coming in my life!

To take the time to realize this,
you're more than everything;
You're ALL my world, my moon and stars
the wind beneath my wings!

The sun is shining bright today,
the sky of purest blue;
Reminds me of the love we share,
this love twixt me and you!

No matter how I feel inside,
you always bring a smile;
Your words take me so far away,
your love, an extra mile!

I built such walls around my heart,
you broke the binds, you see;
Each breath I take now in my life,
your love, the air I breathe!

You fill my heart with joy each day,
you're ALL I'll ever need;
You stand beside me everyday,
your love, an endless breed!

You keep me soaring high at times,
just floating in the wind;
You're so much more than everything
my love, my truest friend!
