Story behind the song
My son and his bride did not have any written vows for their wedding, so I wrote them this.
Lyrics
I THANK GOD FOR YOU
(verse 1)
I give you my hand
and with it my heart,
Our vow is to join
so, we'll never part,
For on this day it's true,
That I thank God for you,
(verse 2)
I'd hoped from the start
that this day would be,
The love and the joy
kept growing in me,
My life's begun anew,
For I thank God for you,
(bridge)
My sole attitude
is sublime gratitude
for Heav'n has answered my plea,
My prayer is complete
in one person so sweet,
When God gave you to me,
(verse 3)
And from this day on
As years come and go,
We'll face every trial,
For this much we'll know
that Christ will see us through,
Yes, I thank God for you,
(bridge)
My sole attitude
is divine gratitude
for Heav'n has answered my plea,
My prayer is complete
in one person so sweet,
When God gave you to me,
(verse 3)
And from this day on
As years come and go,
We'll face every trial,
For this much we'll know
that Christ will see us through,
And I thank God--
The one, true God--
Yes, I thank God for you,
