VERSE 1
Night breaks from its mooring
To reveal your smiling face,
As I get down on my knees to pray for God’s abiding grace,
In bringing you into my life and nesting a great love.
A tear crosses my grateful eye, a kiss from God above.
You’re with me when I’m angry
You’re with me when I’m blue
And I don’t deserve the love you give so freely, always new.
But I try to be your lover and try to be a your friend,
An anchor when you need it or just want it.
CHORUS
You have saved me
You have saved me
You have saved me and I’m grateful.

CODA
And I'm grateful,
I'm grateful,
I'm grateful,
I'm grateful.

VERSE 2
I was but a child before we met, just killing time.
I couldn’t know the life we’d lead; the curving line
That traveled from the whole green earth through nations made of clay,
And molded us to be ourselves.
We write our own screenplay (every day).

I love you when you’re brazen, sparkling light beneath green eyes.
You’re patient, you are holy, you’re sexy, you are wise.
And I don’t take you for granted; you’ll always own my heart
You and me, we’re family, ‘til death pulls us apart.

CHORUS
