Cyril

Two thousand and one, just a regular day

We met at our work, but God was making a way

I looked at you, Cyril, and somehow I knew

My life would be deeply connected to you

By two thousand and three, the foundation was laid

My closest companion, a promise He made

A friendship so steady, a bond so divine

I didn't yet know that you'd one day be mine

Oh, Jeremiah twenty-nine, verse eleven is true

He knew the plans that He had when He gave me you

Patient and kind, with a beautiful soul

A generous spirit that makes my heart whole

Isaiah forty-three, He called you by name

My faithful husband, my steady flame

You love the Lord, and you love us so well

The greatest story of grace I could tell

It took us some years for the seasons to shift

From my very best friend to this wonderful gift

You lift up my spirit whenever I fall

A loyal protector who answers the call

You lead our family with heaven in sight

Walking in faith and reflecting His light

So tender and loving, so supportive and strong

Right here beside you is where I belong

Oh, Jeremiah twenty-nine, verse eleven is true

He knew the plans that He had when He gave me you

Patient and kind, with a beautiful soul

A generous spirit that makes my heart whole

Isaiah forty-three, He called you by name

My faithful husband, my steady flame

You love the Lord, and you love us so well

The greatest story of grace I could tell

Philippians four and nineteen says He will supply

Every need that we have from His riches on high

I prayed for a partner, a love that would last

And God gave me you, anchoring future and past

Cyril, your faith is the rock where we stand

Guided by grace and the Lord's gentle hand

Oh, Jeremiah twenty-nine, verse eleven is true

He knew the plans that He had when He gave me you

Patient and kind, with a beautiful soul

A generous spirit that makes my heart whole

Isaiah forty-three, He called you by name

My faithful husband, my steady flame

You love the Lord, and you love us so well

Forever my blessing, forever to dwell
