Long before you were my wife,
You may doubt I saw you long before I knew you,
A gift years in the waiting, sometimes debating if it was Him or me.
Because God sometimes shows the goal before the journey,
To remind us what we're going through at the moment is so worth it.
And your value to me beyond what I could ever afford,
Because you're created greatness fashioned by His hands.
Often looking upon you, reminded I'm merely a man,
Sorely appreciative I'm yours,
Thoroughly blessed to know you're mine.
As past, present and future violently collide,
A love like ours is truly hard to find.
You once asked me if I was ready for this,
I told you for my life, I've waited for this,
And now that I've found your love I refuse to let it go,
Each day searching for ways to love you more.
God grant me the time, as endless layers our love complies,
And I count myself unworthy of her love,
But I'll live my life in a way she'll never know.
As I'm content to wake up daily by her side,
As you guide our relationship to live as each day passes by die.
