For several years, my heart was cold and bare
I thought the well of love had run completely dry
But then the Lord brought your spirit there
And put the light back in my heavy eyes
Ayinkemi, you breathed a brand new breath
Into a soul that had forgotten how to feel
You took the broken pieces that were left
And showed me that a tender love is real
ChorusYou are my solid rock when the waters rise
An encouraging spirit with a loving mind
You took these four walls and you made them our own
You turned our new house into a happy home
Ayinkemi, I’m thanking God above
For the beautiful gift of your re-energized love
Verse 2You hold my other children in your gentle hands
So accommodating, showing them you care
A progressive woman who always understands
Whenever we need you, you are always there
December twentieth and twenty-first in twenty-three
Are memories of grace that I will always keep
November twenty-third in twenty-five
And June twenty-seventh, twenty-six, we'll testify
ChorusYou are my solid rock when the waters rise
An encouraging spirit with a loving mind
You took these four walls and you made them our own
You turned our new house into a happy home
Ayinkemi, I’m thanking God above
For the beautiful gift of your re-energized love
BridgeThis song is just a token of my gratitude
To show my appreciation for the things you do
You never hesitate to open up your heart
You’ve been my steady anchor right from the start
Oh, Ayinkemi, my beautiful wife
You brought the joy and the peace back to my life
Final ChorusYou are my solid rock when the waters rise
An encouraging spirit with a loving mind
You took these four walls and you made them our own
You turned our new house into a happy home
Ayinkemi, I’m thanking God above
For the beautiful gift of your re-energized love
Yes, you turned our new house into a happy home
With you, Ayinkemi, I will never walk alone
