(Hallelujah, yes Lord)
Lord, I’m bringing my heart to You today
In the quiet, I pray for my husband
Back in the lockdown of twenty-nineteen
We were both lost in a world unseen
I found a light in the middle of the dark
I called him Vlenters, he captured my heart
He showed me kindness when I felt so small
He prioritised me and answered my call
I felt so seen and I felt so loved
A beautiful gift from the heavens above
Oh Vlenters, my love, let the healing begin
Let the walls come down, let the spirit come in
We stood at the altar that April day
Twenty-twenty-six, promising to stay
Oh Lord, mend the distance, take away the pain
Let Your mercy wash over our hearts like the rain
(Thank You Jesus, help us now)
Now there’s a silence where laughter would flow
And the seeds of frustration continue to grow
Every word that I speak turns into a fight
I’m losing my way in the middle of the night
My heart is so sore, I can’t find the words
Are my desperate whispers even being heard?
I’m holding on tight to the vows that we made
Praying that love will not falter or fade
Oh Vlenters, my love, let the healing begin
Let the walls come down, let the spirit come in
We stood at the altar that April day
Twenty-twenty-six, promising to stay
Oh Lord, mend the distance, take away the pain
Let Your mercy wash over our hearts like the rain
(Glory, glory, fix it Lord)
Lord, break the pride that stands in the way
Teach us to listen and teach us to pray
We are two broken souls trying to mend
Bring us back closer, let the bitterness end
(Praise Him, praise Him)
I still love him deeply, he’s still my best friend
I’m trusting in You for the strength to transcend
Remove every shadow that hides us from grace
Let me see the kindness back on his face
Open our hearts to the truth and the light
Help us to choose love and give up the fight
Oh Vlenters, my love, let the healing begin
Let the walls come down, let the spirit come in
We stood at the altar that April day
Twenty-twenty-six, promising to stay
Oh Lord, mend the distance, take away the pain
Let Your mercy wash over our hearts like the rain
Oh, let the healing begin
Back to the love, back to the light
(Yes Lord)
Amen, amen
(Hallelujah)
