What I Want

I want someone who knows me
   inside and out.
Who knows my ways better than
   I do.
Who knew me before I was ever
   born.
Someone who made me unique
   unlike anyone else.
Who loves me faults and all.

He made me appreciate the
   beauty all around.
Because real beauty comes from
   the Father of lights.

He knows how to stir me
How to move me to tears at
   just the right time.
He caresses me with the wind
   on a fall day.
He paints a sunset in the sky,
   after a hot Arizona day.
He leads me with gentleness
   and compassion.

He loved me so much He sent
   His only Son to die for my sins.

So what I want I already have in my
   Savior.
