Bernie

A simple connection, a digital screen

Where God planted seeds of a love yet unseen

We typed our hellos, but the Maker designed

The beautiful union that we were to find

He guided our hearts through the modern unknown

And used a short message to lead me back home

Oh Bernie, my husband, so patient and kind

The sweetest companion that I could ever find

For he who finds a wife finds a very good thing

And favor from God is the blessing you bring

I look in your eyes and I constantly see

The grace of the Lord resting gently on me

Five months since the altar, our promises made

In the light of His glory that never will fade

We traveled to Maine where the deep waters break

And walked by the ocean for our covenant's sake

The pines and the shoreline, the peaceful retreat

Made the start of our journey so holy and sweet

Oh Bernie, my husband, so patient and kind

The sweetest companion that I could ever find

For he who finds a wife finds a very good thing

And favor from God is the blessing you bring

I look in your eyes and I constantly see

The grace of the Lord resting gently on me

You speak with such tenderness, lifting my soul

With every sweet compliment making me whole

When I am uncertain, your patience is clear

A quiet reminder that heaven is near

The Lord smiled upon us and answered my prayer

When He gave me your steadfast devotion and care

Oh Bernie, my husband, so patient and kind

The sweetest companion that I could ever find

For he who finds a wife finds a very good thing

And favor from God is the blessing you bring

Yes, he who finds a wife finds a very good thing

And favor from God is the song that we sing
