Sotero

Lord, when we first met, I never could foresee

The beautiful journey You were writing out for me

August twenty-fourth, two thousand and eighteen

A delayed flight to Hong Kong, but You held the scene

Nothing in the world could stop our wedding day

Thank You, Lord, for bringing Don my way

For eight years of marriage, you’ve never let me down

The most patient, hardworking man I’ve ever found

You’re a pillar for this family, a provider true and kind

A reflection of the love that the Maker has designed

Sotero, we love you, we are standing by your side

Thank God for the blessing of you in my life

I know the sacrifices that you quietly made

Leaving your profession so together we could stay

You gave up your life back home to be right here with me

Building up a future rooted in our family

Your gentle heart is steady, your spirit is so strong

Lord, I praise Your name for where we belong

For eight years of marriage, you’ve never let me down

The most patient, hardworking man I’ve ever found

You’re a pillar for this family, a provider true and kind

A reflection of the love that the Maker has designed

Sotero, we love you, we are standing by your side

Thank God for the blessing of you in my life

You pack my food for work with a quiet, humble grace

You drive Marc to school and put a smile upon his face

Every single afternoon, you’re waiting at the gate

When heaven gave us our baby boy, our happiness grew great

You’re such a wonderful daddy, the anchor of our home

With you, my love, we will never walk alone

So hear this simple prayer as I lift my hands above

Asking God to keep you and surround you with His love

Through every single season, whatever we go through

Chiet, I will always be right here supporting you

You take such good care of us, in all the ways you do

For eight years of marriage, you’ve never let me down

The most patient, hardworking man I’ve ever found

You’re a pillar for this family, a provider true and kind

A reflection of the love that the Maker has designed

Sotero, we love you, our arms are open wide

Forever and always, right by your side

Thank God for the blessing of you in my life
