I Thank God for You

Written for my husband and recorded for our wedding.

Standing in my kitchen,
you took my hand in yours.
My doubt started to melt away,
'cause you looked so assured.
I said "What if I'd disappeared?"
You said I wouldn't have.
I asked how you could know--
and you said you just did.

I saw you, you held me,
the world faded away.
You were everything I'd dreamed of;
and I knew I'd be yours always.
And I thanked God for you.

You saw me when I was invisible,
and you loved me even then.
You waited for me to find myself,
always being a friend.
And when I finally got wise, I realized
that it might be too late.
But I called--and you were there,
and love was written all over your face.

I see you, you hold me,
the world fades away.
You're everything I've dreamed of,
and I am yours always.
And I thank God for you.

Now here we stand, with family and friends
surrounded by flowers and lace.
To pledge our love, and our lives
in this holy place.

I see you, you hold me,
the world fades away.
You're everything I've dreamed of
and I'll be yours always.
And I thank God for you.
