Lyrics
AMEN
As I pick out a scene from the past,
That's the most precious to me,
My mind goes to the time when my eyes
Gazed on the prettiest sight they'd ever seen.
Standing there with brown hair and green eyes
That sparkled and shined was the girl of my dreams
CHORUS
And I prayed Oh God, who is that girl
Consuming my heart and making my mind swirl
With thoughts of her love, I need some help from above
I want to open her eyes to a whole new world
Of all the prayers that I've asked of you
Please God let this one come true...AMEN
Well I know the Lord was pulling some strings
On July 18th, 1992.
Cause this would be the first day of an eternity
That God had planned that I would spend with you
A first date so perfect, between the looks and the smiles
I could tell
My prayers were coming true
CHORUS
And I prayed Oh God, I've met that girl
Consuming my heart and making my mind swirl
With thoughts of her love, I need some help from above
I want to open her eyes to a whole new world
Of all the prayers that I've asked of you
Please God let this one come true...AMEN
Five years later we stood there in front of that church
Exchanging our eternal vows.
And I said, Oh Love, sweet as a pearl,
You consume my heart, you make my mind swirl
With thoughts of your love, Thanks to the Lord's help above
You've opened my eyes to a whole new world
You're a pure hearted angel with such,
An incredibly emotional touch,
And I love you so much....Amen, Amen
