Guardian of Your Heart

Guardian Of Your Heart.

It came to be I came to see
I knew right from the start.
I am here for you my dear
to guard your broken heart.

To right the wrongs and sing the songs.
that’s written in the skies.
To calm your fears and dry the tears
that fall from your blue eyes.

To stand and face the fall from grace
to take you by the hand. 
Being true to God and you
I’m here to make a stand.

Fighting still I always will
when enemies surround you.
Taking blows nobody knows
my arms so strong around you.

Til it comes to be, you come to see
what you could not from the start.
That I am here for you my dear
the guardian of your heart.
