My Goal-My Love
Since you and I met
My goal has been
To be all I can be
For you
In order to achieve this goal
I turned to the Lord
For guidance
Without you I’m nothing
A lonely ship in a crowded harbor
An empty hull creaking with the tide
Without the Lord I’m unworthy
Just an empty soul
Unable to satisfy an unquenchable thirst
Since you and the Lord entered my life
I have changed in every way
I have learned
Everyday is a gift
Every gift is a treasure
Every treasure should be cherished
This is why I cherish and I adore you
I’m proud enough to lead our family
Strong enough to keep us safe
Honest enough to admit my faults
Wise enough to realize I can’t do it alone
Humble enough to follow the Lord
Faithful enough to always believe
That the heart of a man belongs on his sleeve
I wear mine proudly and I always will
Tell the world of the Lady who taught me to feel
