Arthur

Downtown St. Augustine, the summer air was heavy

Walking on our first date, my heart was beating steady

You reached out and took my hand, an instant, holy spark

I felt the Lord connecting us, a light inside the dark

The sun was beating down on us, our palms were sweating bad

But we refused to lose the sweet connection that we had

We wouldn't let it go, no, we just held on tight

Stepping into grace, walking by faith and sight

Arthur, I look at you and can't believe you're mine

A strong Man of God, with a love so divine

You are patient and humble, protective and kind

The most caring husband a woman could find

Lord knows I'm so proud of the man that you are

I love you, my blessing, my guiding star

I fall in love with you more and more every day

Watching how you walk in faith and the gentle way you pray

You cover me in safety, you shield me from the storm

With a humble kind of strength that keeps my spirit warm

Through every passing season, through the trials and the test

Leaning on your shoulder is the place I find my rest

Arthur, I look at you and can't believe you're mine

A strong Man of God, with a love so divine

You are patient and humble, protective and kind

The most caring husband a woman could find

Lord knows I'm so proud of the man that you are

I love you, my blessing, my guiding star

From that first sweaty hand-hold in the Florida heat

To the beautiful life that makes my joy complete

I praise Heaven for your spirit, so faithful and so true

I see the love of Jesus when I'm looking right at you

Oh Arthur, I look at you and can't believe you're mine

A strong Man of God, with a love so divine

You are patient and humble, protective and kind

The most caring husband a woman could find

Lord knows I'm so proud of the man that you are

I love you, my blessing, my guiding star

I wouldn't let go then, and I'll never let go now
