God Gave Me You

Every time the song, God Gave Me You, comes on, Chris always stops and says, "I dedicate this song to you."


I’ve been a walking heartache
I’ve made a mess of me
The person that I’ve been lately
Ain’t who I wanna be

But you stay here right beside me
Watch as the storm goes through
And I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
*If* There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you

There’s more here than what were seeing
A divine conspiracy
That you, an angel lovely
Could somehow fall for me
You’ll always be love’s great martyr
Ill be the flattered fool
and I need you

On my own I’m only
Half of what I could be
I can’t do without you
We are stitched together
And what love has tethered
I pray we never undo

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
*If* There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you, gave me you.
Gave me you.

As the kids and I had dinner without you tonight, we prayed and thanked God for giving us you! You are a wonderful husband and father. We are blessed to have you in the ups and downs. Thank you for working so hard for us today (selling two homes) and longing to be home with us. We love your smile and hugs when you get home; it is evidence of how much you miss us when you are at work.

Tonight, honey, I dedicate this song to you. XOXO
