Fifty-Four Years Home

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some roads wind through the years so long Two hearts can lose their way But faith has got a funny way Of bringing back what slipped away Sometimes love just needs to wait [Chorus] Here's to second chances, here's to finding home Here's to knowing God was with us even on our own Through the miles and through the silence Love was holding on Here's to every day we've got now Here's to you, John [Verse 2] Fifty-four years, the world kept turning We lived our separate lives Then heaven called our loved ones home Just weeks apart in time A sympathy card, a trembling hand And Babe, I heard your voice again [Chorus] Here's to second chances, here's to finding home Here's to knowing God was with us even on our own Through the miles and through the silence Love was holding on Here's to every day we've got now Here's to you, John [Bridge] December came like a promise kept Two golden rings and no regret Worshiping side by side again Where our forever starts, not ends [Verse 3] Your kindness lights up every room You've spent your whole life lifting others up A teacher's heart that never stopped Now seventy-nine years strong, my love I'm praying we've got years and years To walk this road together, dear [Chorus] Here's to second chances, here's to finding home Here's to knowing God was with us even on our own Through the miles and through the silence Love was holding on Here's to every day we've got now Here's to you, John [Outro] Happy birthday, Babe My second chance, my answered prayer John, I'm so glad you're here
