Russell

I count the blessings in the quiet of the room

Every single part of you is beautiful and true

Russell, you're the answer to a prayer I couldn't speak

The strength that holds me steady when my spirit's feeling weak

I look at you and see a grace I've never known

Everything you are has made this love a holy home

My heart is yours entirely, resting in your hands

A love so deep and sacred, exactly as God planned

My body loves you, Russell, my spirit is consumed

You are my sanctuary, my light within the room

I remember standing there, the bags beside the door

A heavy kind of silence on the bedroom floor

I whispered as I held you, pulling at your sleeve

Please don't leave, take me with you, I need you to believe

I need you like the morning needs the breaking of the light

I cannot bear the distance, I cannot bear the night

My heart is yours entirely, resting in your hands

A love so deep and sacred, exactly as God planned

My body loves you, Russell, my spirit is consumed

You are my sanctuary, my light within the room

There is no single reason, it is everything you do

The way the heavens open when I'm standing next to you

I surrender to this feeling, I surrender to this grace

I find a taste of heaven in the beauty of your face

So let the journey take us wherever we must tread

As long as I am with you, I have nothing left to dread

Flesh and bone and spirit, I am tethered to your side

Russell, you're my anchor, my lover, and my guide

My heart is yours entirely, resting in your hands

A love so deep and sacred, exactly as God planned

My body loves you, Russell, my spirit is consumed

You are my sanctuary, my light within the room

Yes, my heart is yours forever, my soul is completely tied

Take me with you always, stay right by my side
