Andrew

I prayed for you when I was just a little girl

Asking the Lord for a faithful heart in this world

At Grandma Ruth’s, you were working outside with your dad

She called you in to meet me, the best surprise I've had

We spent every single day watching friendship bloom

I knew that heaven sent you to that very room

Oh, Andrew, you are my answered prayer

My patient, loving rock, always standing there

Love never gives up, it never loses faith

It is always hopeful, enduring by His grace

Through every circumstance, a blessing from above

Always and forever, my true and faithful love

Nine months went by, and when Grandma Fern had passed

You asked me to be yours, a love we knew would last

Fifteen months of waiting for July twenty-one

In two thousand and three, at the altar, our new life had begun

Mackenzie, Tyler, Kyran make our family whole

Serving God together is the anchor of our soul

Ninety-nine children fostered, and we've adopted three

Pouring out the love that Jesus gave to you and me

Oh, Andrew, you are my answered prayer

My patient, loving rock, always standing there

Love never gives up, it never loses faith

It is always hopeful, enduring by His grace

Through every circumstance, a blessing from above

Always and forever, my true and faithful love

We love because God first loved us

In every stage of life, it is Him we trust

You work so hard to provide, and take such tender care

A sentimental, giving man, so handsome and so rare

You are the greatest earthly gift the Lord could ever send

My husband, my protector, and my very best friend

Oh, Andrew, you are my answered prayer

My patient, loving rock, always standing there

Love never gives up, it never loses faith

It is always hopeful, enduring by His grace

Through every circumstance, a blessing from above

Always and forever, my true and faithful love
