โWhen the Promise Took a Breathโ
Southern Gospel ยท FreeCustomSong Original
Lord, I look back on the miles I've walked
Through the quiet prayers and the long, deep talks
My name is Jason, and I'll testify
Of the goodness raining down from the sky
I kept my feet on the narrow way
Trusting the light would lead to today
And my heart is full, my spirit is bright
I'm stepping out into the morning light
ChorusOh, there is joy overflowing my soul
A kind of happy that makes a man whole
I kept the faith and I stayed the course
Praising the Maker, the ultimate source
Yeah, the sweetest blessing beneath the sun
Was the very first day I held my son
Verse 2I still remember that beautiful day
When all of the waiting just melted away
I heard the first cry, it rang through the air
The beautiful answer to every prayer
I gathered him up, so fragile and small
Felt the grace of Heaven washing over it all
A miracle breathing, so perfect and new
Proving that what we believe in is true
ChorusOh, there is joy overflowing my soul
A kind of happy that makes a man whole
I kept the faith and I stayed the course
Praising the Maker, the ultimate source
Yeah, the sweetest blessing beneath the sun
Was the very first day I held my son
BridgeEvery step of the journey was worth the climb
For the love that I'm holding in this sweet time
I'm walking in sunshine, I'm singing my song
Knowing right here is where I belong
A faithful heart always finds its reward
When you're leaning on the promises of the Lord
Final ChorusOh, there is joy overflowing my soul
A kind of happy that makes a man whole
I kept the faith and I stayed the course
Praising the Maker, the ultimate source
Yeah, the sweetest blessing beneath the sun
Was the very first day I held my son
Hallelujah, the journey has just begun
Thank God for the day I met my son
