“Fifteen and Forever (God Gave Me You)”
Southern Gospel · FreeCustomSong Original
I was only fifteen, you were just eighteen
We met at your sister’s house, the sweetest boy I'd seen
You had a gentle spirit and a funny, loving heart
I knew the Good Lord brought us there to give our lives a start
Through every changing season, we've walked a blessed road
Sharing every triumph and lightening the load
ChorusOh, God gave me you, sixty years ago
And my love just continues to deepen and grow
My faithful husband Bob, my blessing and my guide
I thank the Lord in heaven that I'm walking by your side
Through the sunshine and the valleys, come whatever may
I truly love you, darling, more and more each day
Verse 2We’ve built a life of joy upon a solid rock
Sharing all the laughter as we watched the ticking clock
I loved to sneak around and scare you half to death
Jumping out with Uncle Ned until you caught your breath
You'd shake your head and smile, and pull me in so near
Your steady, loving presence always washed away my fear
ChorusOh, God gave me you, sixty years ago
And my love just continues to deepen and grow
My faithful husband Bob, my blessing and my guide
I thank the Lord in heaven that I'm walking by your side
Through the sunshine and the valleys, come whatever may
I truly love you, darling, more and more each day
BridgeSix decades of devotion, a lifetime of His grace
I see the love of Jesus when I look into your face
You've been my sturdy anchor, so loving and so true
My greatest answered prayer is the miracle of you
Final ChorusOh, God gave me you, sixty years ago
And my love just continues to deepen and grow
My faithful husband Bob, my blessing and my guide
I thank the Lord in heaven that I'm walking by your side
Yes, God gave me you, and the angels heard me pray
I truly love you, Bob, more and more each day
