My Forever Light

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Twenty-seven years ago A screen lit up and changed my soul A name I'd never seen before But something whispered, there is more The road was long, the path unknown But faith was planting seeds we'd sown [Chorus] Missy, you're my rock, my steady ground When the world was shaking, you never let me down Through every valley, every mountain high God gave me you and I know why You're the love, the hope, the strength I've found [Verse 2] We packed our lives from place to place Duty stations, changing space But home was never walls or doors Home was always something more Your mama showed us what it means To love with fire and hold your dreams And Pam, oh how she made us laugh Her joy still lights our path [Chorus] Missy, you're my rock, my steady ground When the world was shaking, you never let me down Through every valley, every mountain high God gave me you and I know why You're the love, the hope, the strength I've found [Bridge] We lost some angels on the way But I can feel them here today Jamaica shores and Antigua sun Twenty-four years and we're still not done [Verse 3] Your cap and gown, my Navy days The grandchildren running, lost in play I almost lost you, I won't pretend But you stood strong, you rose again No matter what this life may bring I'm by your side through everything Baby, I promise with all my heart Nothing in this world could keep us apart [Chorus] Missy, you're my rock, my steady ground When the world was shaking, you never let me down Through every valley, every mountain high God gave me you and I know why You're the love, the hope, the strength I've found [Outro] So take my hand and hold on tight Missy, you're my forever light
