I Found Love

I found love
When my heart was still dark,
When my mind was still troubled.
You found me.

I found love
when the pain was still strong,
When I was hard to love,
You came along.

I found love
with an amazing man
a man who waited
who waited for me.

I found love
when I needed it most,
When I had nothing,
You found me.

I found love
that mended my soul,
mended my heart
and made me whole.

I found love
that ended my fear,
ended my pain,
Made me, me again.

I found you
when the going was tough,
You gently made smooth
from the me that was rough.

I found you
the man who re-made me,
Who taught me to laugh
like never before.

I thank you
for giving me life,
for bringing me peace
in the midst of my strife.

I thank you for being
what I needed back then,
and for being my saviour
again and again.

I found you
and I love you still,
for making me well
when I was ill.
