Maurice

We caught eyes by the checkout line

Just a grocery store, but the timing was right

Now we're sharing these dinners, pouring the wine

Talking 'bout the future deep into the night

You show me a sweetness I've never known

With every single date, this feeling has grown

Oh, Maurice, with your sweet ambition

Wise and generous, on a beautiful mission

Never give up, go after what you want

Even when the journey gets heavy and long

Keep reaching high, stay on your track

'Cause I'm right here, and God has your back

You give so much of the heart that you hold

A quiet kind of strength that never gets old

Across the dinner table, I listen and smile

Knowing I'm safe in your presence a while

You build people up with the words that you say

I see your gentle kindness in every single way

Oh, Maurice, with your sweet ambition

Wise and generous, on a beautiful mission

Never give up, go after what you want

Even when the journey gets heavy and long

Keep reaching high, stay on your track

'Cause I'm right here, and God has your back

When the doubts creep in and the shadows fall

Remember the grace that covers it all

You've got a spirit that's meant to fly

So chase every vision you see in the sky

Don't ever settle, don't let it fade

Walk in the path that heaven has made

Oh, Maurice, with your sweet ambition

Wise and generous, on a beautiful mission

Never give up, go after what you want

Even when the journey gets heavy and long

Keep reaching high, stay on your track

'Cause I love you, and God has your back
