We met at a bad time, the lowest we had been
You were going through divorce, feeling like you couldn't win
I was battling the drugs, just trying to fix myself
Two dusty books left on a broken shelf
It was a heavy kind of season, a bitter kind of rain
But John, we found our comfort in the middle of the pain
ChorusYou are my hero, my saving grace
The one who loved the tears right off my face
A hardworking man with a generous heart
You held me together when I fell apart
You’re my angel from God, sent from above
Out of the wreckage, we built this love
Verse 2You wake up every morning and you put the hard work in
You showed me what it means to let somebody in
With your caring, gentle spirit, you never kept score
Just a loving, honest man I couldn't help but adore
When my hands were shaking, you held them in your own
Two weary travelers who finally made it home
ChorusYou are my hero, my saving grace
The one who loved the tears right off my face
A hardworking man with a generous heart
You held me together when I fell apart
You’re my angel from God, sent from above
Out of the wreckage, we built this love
BridgeI was trying to fix myself, stumbling in the dark
But you saw the light inside my heavy heart
God knew exactly what we both were needing then
A chance to take a breath and start again
Final Chorus'Cause you are my hero, my saving grace
The one who loved the shadows from my face
A hardworking man with a generous heart
You held me together when I fell apart
John, you're my husband, my angel from above
I love you forever, we built this love
