Before we even met, we bowed our heads to pray
We put the good Lord first, and let Him lead the way
A simple date at McDonald's, the river till three A.M.
I knew right from the start that I was in love with him
ChorusDonnie, you're everything I ever prayed for
My light in a dark world, my safe place when I'm scared
The greatest love the Lord has blessed me with
The answer to my most devoted prayers
Every struggle in my life, every trial I went through
Was worth it all, because it brought me straight to you
Verse 2I love waking up every morning, safe inside your arms
Holding hands everywhere we go, keeping each other warm
Riding shotgun in your big truck, just watching the miles go by
Then sitting in the church pew, praising the Lord on high
ChorusDonnie, you're everything I ever prayed for
My light in a dark world, my safe place when I'm scared
The greatest love the Lord has blessed me with
The answer to my most devoted prayers
Every struggle in my life, every trial I went through
Was worth it all, because it brought me straight to you
BridgeYou're a hard-working man, so loving and so wise
An awesome father taking care of us, with kindness in your eyes
You love Jesus and you love me, you're beautiful and strong
You are the solid rock this family is resting on
Verse 3I'll stand right by your side, whether you're right or wrong
Through every heavy storm, and every blessing that comes along
My best friend and my husband, the love of my whole life
I cherish every single second, every minute day and night
Final ChorusDonnie, you're everything I ever prayed for
My light in a dark world, my safe place when I'm scared
The greatest love the Lord has blessed me with
The answer to my most devoted prayers
Every struggle in my life, every trial I went through
Was worth it all, because it brought me straight to you
Yes, it was worth everything, because it brought me straight to you
