John

Thirty-two years since the day that we met

Some moments are etched in my soul, I could never forget

I saw the tears flowing down your face

The day you surrendered to His holy grace

And the tears fell again on the day we were wed

As I walked down the aisle to the promises said

John, you stood there waiting, a man made anew

Led by the Spirit, so faithful and true

You mean the world to me, more than I say

I celebrate the man that you are every day

A giver, a helper, a heart built on faith

Loving our family and seeking His face

I know that I can make it, I know that you can stand

No matter what may come your way, your life is in His hands

You opened your arms and you took in my two

Raised them and loved them like they came from you

A father by choice with a spirit so kind

The rarest of blessings a mother could find

Then God gave us one of our own to complete

This beautiful family that sits at His feet

Through every season, through every test

John, with your love, we are truly so blessed

You mean the world to me, more than I say

I celebrate the man that you are every day

A giver, a helper, a heart built on faith

Loving our family and seeking His face

I know that I can make it, I know that you can stand

No matter what may come your way, your life is in His hands

I might not express it as much as I should

But I see all you do for the kingdom and good

You're always there helping a soul in their need

Planting the gospel in every good seed

So I'm singing this song just to honor your heart

The rock of our home right from the start

You mean the world to me, more than I say

I celebrate the man that you are every day

A giver, a helper, a heart built on faith

Loving our family and seeking His face

I know that I can make it, I know that you can stand

No matter what may come your way, your life is in His hands

Yes, no matter what may come your way, your life is in His hands
