Johnathan

You asked me out time after time, and I just shook my head

But you wouldn't give up on me, no matter what I said

Then my birthday rolled around, and I finally told you yes

We got sushi down in Murrells Inlet, and you know the rest

Looking across that table at your funny, loving smile

I didn't know it then, but we'd be walking down the aisle

Johnathan, you're a family man, so loving and so strong

Four kids around our table now, right where we belong

Three I gained and one we made, I love them like my own

September fourteenth, twenty-twenty-four, look how we have grown

I’m so proud of the road you've walked and the battles you fought through

Every single day, I thank the Lord for you

There was a time the shadows fell, the drinking took a toll

It really hurt our family and weighed heavy on your soul

But you didn't let it break us, you fell down on your knees

Confessed your sins to Heaven, and asked the Lord for peace

You gave it all to God that day, and left the dark behind

Now you're a man of faith and grace, with a quiet, peaceful mind

Johnathan, you're a family man, so loving and so strong

Four kids around our table now, right where we belong

Three I gained and one we made, I love them like my own

September fourteenth, twenty-twenty-four, look how we have grown

I’m so proud of the road you've walked and the battles you fought through

Every single day, I thank the Lord for you

I wouldn't want our little boy to have any other dad

You're the anchor of this family, through the good times and the bad

So when the road gets heavy, never let the Devil win

We are right here in your corner, through the thick and thin

Oh Johnathan, you're a family man, so loving and so strong

Four kids around our table now, right where we belong

Three I gained and one we made, I love them like my own

September fourteenth, twenty-twenty-four, look how we have grown

I’m so proud of all you've overcome, your heart is tried and true

We love you so much, Johnathan, I thank the Lord for you
