Bright sunny day on a Harlem street
The city slowed down the second our eyes did meet
No words were spoken, but my spirit knew
That my forever was standing right there in you
The New York noise just quietly slipped away
Replaced by a feeling that was meant to stay
I found my future in a single glance
And gave my heart to this beautiful romance
ChorusOh, James, you're the arms where I belong
Protective and loyal, steady and strong
You wrap me in love, you keep me secure
With a sense of humor that's the ultimate cure
We draw near to the Lord, and He draws near to us
Covering our marriage in a holy trust
My husband, my partner, my everyday peace
With you by my side, the blessings won't cease
Verse 2When the world gets heavy, you know just what to say
You bring out the laughter and chase the dark away
A gentle protector with a soul so deep
A promise of devotion that you always keep
You stand in my corner, faithful and true
Every slow-jam playing reminds me of you
From that first Harlem spark to the life that we share
There is no other love that could ever compare
ChorusOh, James, you're the arms where I belong
Protective and loyal, steady and strong
You wrap me in love, you keep me secure
With a sense of humor that's the ultimate cure
We draw near to the Lord, and He draws near to us
Covering our marriage in a holy trust
My husband, my partner, my everyday peace
With you by my side, the blessings won't cease
BridgeWe hold onto the promise in James four, verse eight
Letting faith be the anchor, letting grace navigate
"Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you"
It’s the breath in our lungs, it’s the light shining through
Spiritually tied, with our hands intertwined
The deepest connection a woman could find
Final ChorusOh, James, you're the arms where I belong
Protective and loyal, steady and strong
You wrap me in love, you keep me secure
With a sense of humor that's the ultimate cure
We draw near to the Lord, and He draws near to us
Covering our marriage in a holy trust
My husband, my partner, my answered prayer
Forever and always, I will be there
