Story Behind The Song

I wrote this on behalf of my close girlfriends and her fiance at the time. I performed it at their wedding in Spring 2000.

Song Description

A Love ballad. It speaks to the fact that the love a man and woman have for one another is a gift from God and God alone. it is a blessing not by chance that two people meet and fall in love the way God intended it to happen.

Lyrics

Verse:
I remember when we first met,
It was a moment I can?t forget,
In an instant I felt free
You were the wind beneath my wings

And I can not forget
the moment when our eyes met
not only did you see the outer me
you looked into my soul and set me free
And I knew my life would never be the same

Chorus:
I am lucky. No I am blessed
When God gave me you
He gave the very best
And when I look into your eyes
My heart is filled with joy and pride
Because heaven has smiled on me.

Verse:
Here we stand today
Ready to give ourselves away
Seems like only yesterday
Heaven sent you my way

Through the good the bad
We won?t despair for what we have
Is more then what the human eye can see
We?re not alone we have the Trinity
And I know our lives will never be the same

Chorus:
We are lucky, no we are blessed!
For when God gave us love
He gave the very best!
And when I look into your eyes
My heart is filled with joy and pride
Because heaven has smiled on me.

Bridge:
Father how can I ever thank you
All of heaven has smiled on me
For You sent to me the one that I adore
How could I want for more
All I pray is that my love will be,
as strong and pure as Your love for me
