Verse 1:
My love
I'll never find the words, my love
To tell you how I feel, my love
/ /
Mere words could not explain
Precious love
/
You held my life within your hands
/
Created everything I am
/
Taught me how to live again
Only you
Care when I needed a friend
Believed in me through thick and thin
This song is for you
Filled with gratitude and love
Chorus:
God bless you
You make me feel brand new
/
For God blessed me with you
You make me feel brand new
/ ()
I sing this song 'cause you
Make me feel brand new

Verse 2:
My love
Whenever I was insecure
You built me up and made me sure
You gave my pride back to me
Precious friend
With you I'll always have a friend
You're someone who I can depend
To walk a path that sometimes bends
Without you
Life has no meaning or rhyme
Like notes to a song out of time
How can I repay
You for having faith in me
Coda [repeat partial chorus to fade]:
God bless you
You make me feel brand new
/
For God blessed me with you
You make me feel brand new
/
I sing this song for you
[continue instrumentally; fade]
