Strength to Last

I told myself there would never be another
Closed the book on love for all my life
Content to be a simple man and single
But that never did feel right
For the prayers of friends and my mother
To answer, well, the Lord He did not wait
I met you when He knew I needed someone
And life's never been so great
Thank God now...

(Chorus)
We will spend our lives in each other's arms
The peace during the calm, a shelter from the storm
And I'll pray every night
For one more day to hold you tight
And if it's not too much to ask
That you will have the strength to last
Forever in my arms

I had a dream one night you went before me
And got to meet our maker face to face
The love we had seemed lost among the living
And I never found my place
It wasn't long before I came to quickly join you
With tears of joy we walked down streets of gold
Just as soon as I got close enough to hold you
Suddenly I woke
Then I thanked God (chorus)

So if it's not too much to ask
Would you find the strength to last
Forever in my arms
