Where Our Eyes First Met

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a grace that finds us young, A quiet blessing, softly sung. Two hearts that God arranged to meet, Where dusty roads and rivers greet. In Del Rio our eyes first met, A moment I will not forget. [Chorus] Oh, what a love, what a faithful road, Through every season, we've carried the load. By His mercy we still stand, Hand in trembling loving hand. Grateful, oh grateful, blessed and true, For all these years I've spent with you. [Verse 2] Gene, my confidant, my friend, My biggest voice until the end. A kind heart wide as open sky, You love all people, pass none by. You hate no one, you lift them high, A gentle strength, a faithful guy. [Chorus] Oh, what a love, what a faithful road, Through every season, we've carried the load. By His mercy we still stand, Hand in trembling loving hand. Grateful, oh grateful, blessed and true, For all these years I've spent with you. [Bridge] Your stories of Beulah, foxhunt and pines, "Work hard, invest, you'll do fine." Glenn loves you, our dogs do too, This family was built by you. [Verse 3] Gene, 43 years we have known, A garden that our God has grown. Through good and bad I'll hold you near, Your love the treasure I hold dear. Happy birthday, my dearest one, Our finest chapters still not done. [Chorus] Oh, what a love, what a faithful road, Through every season, we've carried the load. By His mercy we still stand, Hand in trembling loving hand. Grateful, oh grateful, blessed and true, For all these years I've spent with you. [Outro] God has blessed us more than we knew, Forever grateful, forever you.
