You Carried Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a quiet kind of love The kind that don't need words It shows up in the morning light And every shift of hurt When the world came crashing down And I couldn't stand alone Someone held my shaking hand And called this broken body home [Chorus] Oh, she's the steady in my storm The reason I hold on A heart so true, a love so warm Singing me a healing song Through every fall and every fight She never walked away Thank God for the woman Who carried me each day [Verse 2] When my neck gave out beneath me And the doctors shook their heads She slept beside the hospital lights And whispered prayers from the bed Phoebe, you wiped my tears away You spoon-fed me with grace You found the man inside the pain And kissed my weary face [Chorus] Oh, she's the steady in my storm The reason I hold on A heart so true, a love so warm Singing me a healing song Through every fall and every fight She never walked away Thank God for the woman Who carried me each day [Bridge] When the stroke tried to steal my voice You spoke for both of us Phoebe, you are my second chance My faith, my breath, my trust [Verse 3] Now the mornings feel like mercy And the sunsets feel like gold I'll spend whatever time I'm given Just learning how to hold The woman who held me up When I couldn't stand at all My Phoebe, my forever You're the answer to my call [Outro] Just because, just because You loved me through it all Just because, sweet Phoebe You're the reason I still stand tall
