Deborah

Take me back to Wadesboro, where our story began

I saw your pretty face and knew I'd be your man

We took that ride to Chesterfield to say our holy vows

And every promise that I made is beating in me now

You had that quiet wisdom, a beauty shining through

I didn't just find a woman, I found my life in you

Oh, Deborah, my beautiful wife

The smart and caring center of my life

Through the laughter and the crying, through the joy and the tears

My heart hasn't shifted, I'm still right here

I want you to know, and I'll never forget

My love is as strong as the day we first met

Five beautiful children we raised under our roof

Now we're loving on our grandkids, and baby that's the proof

You've been the greatest mother, holding us so tight

With a gentle kind of wisdom that makes everything right

We built this family on patience, we built it on your grace

And time could never fade the sweet smile on your face

Oh, Deborah, my beautiful wife

The smart and caring center of my life

Through the laughter and the crying, through the joy and the tears

My heart hasn't shifted, I'm still right here

I want you to know, and I'll never forget

My love is as strong as the day we first met

Every Sunday morning, sitting side by side

Loving the Lord together, with nothing left to hide

His grace has been the anchor when the waters got deep

And your spirit is a blessing that I get to keep

The church and the Word kept our focus above

And God gave me a miracle when He gave me your love

Oh, Deborah, my beautiful wife

The smart and caring center of my life

Through the laughter and the crying, through the joy and the tears

My heart hasn't shifted, I'm still right here

I want you to know, and I'll never forget

My love is as strong as the day we first met

Yeah, my love is as strong as the day we first met
