Katie Drake Bless This Man lyrics

When I was just a young girl
I would often pray for you
That you were becoming someone
Who loved Jesus like I do

I prayed your faith would be strong
A man after God's own heart
And each time that I'd pray for you
This is how it'd always start

Chorus
Bless this man, he's the one you're preparing for me
To cherish me all of my life and love me devotedly
Lord help him to be strong
And be the support I'll need
I'll pray for him everyday
That by his side you'll always be

As I grew up I knew
God was preparing me

To be that woman just for you
Because he knew what you'd need

Bridge
I've dreamed of this day all my life
When I'd be yours and you'd be mine
And now I'm saying this prayer for you
On this first day as your wife

Chorus 2
Lord Bless this man, he's the one you have chosen for me
I'll cherish him all of my life and love him devotedly
Lord help me to be strong and be the support he'll need
I'll pray for him everyday and by his side I'll always be

Lord help us to be strong, and be the support we'll need
Yes this cord of three will be strong
Because by our side you'll always be
