Steven

September second, nineteen ninety-two

Across a crowded club, my eyes found you

It was love at first sight, a lightning strike

I knew right then what my future looked like

I stepped back in the shadows, bowed my head

And I whispered to God exactly what I said:

"I'm gonna marry that man, just wait and see"

And heaven smiled down on you and me.

Steven, you’re the answer to the prayer I prayed

My sweet, gentle husband through the life we've made

So patient and funny, intelligent and kind

The most trustworthy heart I could ever find

I'm so grateful the Lord gave me you to hold

A love story better than the ones we're told.

February twenty-fifth of ninety-five

We promised our hearts for the rest of our lives

Raising our two daughters, the years flew by fast

Amusement parks, movies, and concerts in the past

Driving to West Virginia, family all around

And Georgia reunions where our roots are found

You're always supportive, my steady guiding light

Through every single season, you make it all alright.

Steven, you’re the answer to the prayer I prayed

My sweet, gentle husband through the life we've made

So patient and funny, intelligent and kind

The most trustworthy heart I could ever find

I'm so grateful the Lord gave me you to hold

A love story better than the ones we're told.

Now four little grandkids are calling you Papa

I watch your face light up, and it fills me with awe

"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength"

You live by that verse, going to any length

Jesus loves you so much, and I know it's true

Because He showed His grace when He led me to you.

Steven, you’re the answer to the prayer I prayed

My sweet, gentle husband through the life we've made

So patient and funny, intelligent and kind

The most trustworthy heart I could ever find

I'm so grateful the Lord gave me you to hold

I will love you forever, as we grow old.
