Fannie's Kitchen, Fannie's Heart

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some people light a room up Before they say a word A laugh that fills the hallway The sweetest sound you've heard A kitchen warm with Ensaymadas A garden growing tall A heart that never hesitates To give its love to all [Chorus] Here's to the years we've walked by faith Through every storm and sunny day You're the prayer I never knew to pray Fannie, I'd choose you every way Every single step along the way [Verse 2] You tend to everyone you meet Like flowers in your yard Your patients call you family You hold them close to heart From open doors to tables full Of friends and homemade pandesals You make this world feel like a home With every word you've said [Chorus] Here's to the years we've walked by faith Through every storm and sunny day You're the prayer I never knew to pray Fannie, I'd choose you every way Every single step along the way [Bridge] When the waters rocked beneath our feet On every shore we've known Your hand in mine through grace and mercy Made everywhere feel home [Verse 3] That laugh of yours could heal the world It's heaven's favorite sound You plant forgiveness, harvest love In every soul around So Fannie, on this anniversary I thank the Lord above For blessing me with all you are My partner and my love [Chorus] Here's to the years we've walked by faith Through every storm and sunny day You're the prayer I never knew to pray Fannie, I'd choose you every way Every single step along the way [Outro] Still walking hand in hand by faith With you until my final day
