A Gift Such As Her

Without her-there's no tellin' where I'd be I'd be tossed by waves & forever lost at sea Self-destructive & barely clinging to life My spirits turned ugly full of envy & strife Not knowing direction or the purpose of my course The highway to hell- my throttle full force That light within me-gone- with my heart turned black From all the betrayal & scars across my back I'd still be looking for love- slowly loosing hope From the drugs to depression there's no one to help me cope No reason to care, my life had become a blur Then God showed Amazing Grace with a gift such as her Now she's tied to my soul & runs thicker than any blood Washing me clean, like the Lord did with the flood Healing all wounds of my past enabling me to rise above We strengthen each other & soar like the wings of a dove Proving that love is power, covering a multitude of sin So where I thought I was broken. I was really able to bend No doubt you saved me- Kyrie this I know for sure Bringing beauty back to life & feeling God's Grace- for me- once more

God certainly blessed you both when he gifted you to each other. "That light within me-gone- with my heart turned black" - beautiful!
