From the moment I saw you I was captivated
I owned it I saw you, desire decapitated
The groaning by warning de-escalated
be holy, it's only, by grace that I made it
had to get a grip, can't slip, this ain't it, time to flip
cuz the timing ain't right now
you're lookin elsewhere I'm in a straight fight now
then outta nowhere you're on a break like wow
The Lord broke in light, blew the gate like blaow
It's on, on the phone, I'm amazed like ¿how
did this happen? We're yappin' it feels like I'm dreamin'
¿My wish comin' true? ¿Is this happ'ning like it's seemin'?
Then drama of waiting, we patient, we prayin’
an out of town trip, marks a trip, no more delayin’
beauty in and out, double dub, I'm cloud nine-in’
back down on earth on my knee the rock shinin’
Christ and the church we can see the Rock shinin'
two-one makes a Rock - makes a beat - our Rock shinin'
Christ and the church we can see the Rock shinin'
two-one makes a Rock - makes a beat - our Rock shinin'
.
Love, you . . .
you make me happy
Christ made this happ'ning
You chose to have me
.
From day one as one, God's grace, so infinite
Perfectenshlag, like Schrute, I'm deep in it
you gave me your heart, at start, I'm keepin' it
The year one fight is hard, yet we winnin'
Marriage bed joys and pains, but I'm grinnin'
you taught me to lead in life, get that win-win
you help me, together, seek Christ the Lord
CFBC we grew in our core
CHBC we learned needed more
BBC put down roots, heaven’s store
Rock is like you, thoughtful and kind
Key like you, so strong in the mind
Story like you, the touch that's so caring
City like you, a joy she keeps sharing
Reed is like you, audacious and bold
It’s you multiplied as they grow we’ll grow old
.
Love, you . . .
you make me happy
Christ made this happ'ning
You chose to have me
