Jim

You rolled the dough on our very first date

Homemade pizza, perfect on the plate

I left the edges sitting on the side

You faked a gasp and showed your wounded pride

You made me laugh until my sides were sore

Right then I knew I couldn't ask for more

Jim, you're adorable in all you do

A tender heart so giving and so true

God whispered to my spirit long ago

He said you'd be the man I needed so

Through every season, you're the one who stays

Guarding our family in a million ways

From the smallest moments to the answered prayers

I'm wrapped up in your tender, loving care

When I am sick and shivering in bed

You stay right by me, kiss my aching head

You shield our children, keep them safe and warm

Our steady shelter in the middle of the storm

You even faced your fears and took to the skies

Your very first airplane, I saw it in your eyes

Just to take us on that family cruise

There's nothing for us that you wouldn't do

God whispered to my spirit long ago

He said you'd be the man I needed so

Through every season, you're the one who stays

Guarding our family in a million ways

From the smallest moments to the answered prayers

I'm wrapped up in your tender, loving care

But the greatest gift that I have ever seen

Is watching grace wash over everything

Seeing you find Jesus made my soul rejoice

I hear His love whenever I hear your voice

The promise that I trusted from the start

Is living right inside your giving heart

God whispered to my spirit long ago

He said you'd be the man I needed so

Through every season, you're the one who stays

Guarding our family in a million ways

Jim, from the pizza crust to answered prayers

I'm forever in your tender, loving care
