Dear God: Thank You For Your “””SWEET”””Gift

  


God your love for me is very clear


You know my flesh, you know my fear,


You know my body, you know my mind


You know my growth can fall way behind


So you gave me a gift, unspeakable, real


Emotions so strong, I cant say how I feel,


I open my eyes at the start of each day


To behold beauty that with me does stay,


She smiles at me though knowing my sins


And prays for me when a new day begins,


She comes alongside, put there by God


She's fully aware her husband is flawed,


But she loves me to death, I know that it's true


And I run out of ways to say "I love you."


She lends me her spirit to help focus my thought


She lends me her wisdom, lessons God's taught,


She gives me her body, so completely, so free


With passion and love, complete ecstasy,


So I love her like Christ said to love your bride


And cherish that girl that stays by my side,


I love her and honor her, a gift straight from God


I feel giddy, happy, filled with great awe,


I want you to think for a moment or two


Just what that woman really means to you,


How your work for the Lord would suffer or die


If she didn't help, but stood idly by,


Do you realize your mind would fold in on itself?


Do you think all that work is done by an elf?


The meals she cooks, the dishes she does


She does backbreaking work, and it's all because


It's a ministry from God, she's smart enough to know


How God works in a family whose life's on the go,


Now let's all thank God for the gift He has given


And serve Him together, a team bound for heaven.
