The Truest Heart in All the Land

Lyrics

[Verse 1] God dropped you in my lap one spring, A blind date and a wedding ring, Two years and change, then Christmas Eve, You knelt down low and I believed. Some loves are loud, some loves are bold, But yours is steady, pure as gold. [Chorus] Thank you for loving me so well, Through every high and every spell, You stayed beside that hospital bed, Held my hand, stroked my head. A quiet strength, a faithful hand, The truest heart in all the land. [Verse 2] From Quantico to Texas skies, Through every move, you held us tight, Louisiana rain, Virginia snow, Wherever duty said to go. You came home tired, but never late, Always true, our steady weight. [Chorus] Thank you for loving me so well, Through every high and every spell, You stayed beside that hospital bed, Held my hand, stroked my head. A quiet strength, a faithful hand, The truest heart in all the land. [Bridge] "Can I get you anything?" you say, A hundred times a hundred ways, Oh Scott, your love has never failed, Through every storm, your light prevailed. [Verse 3] Ramsey, Ivey, the swim meets too, The cheer routines, they had in you The finest daddy girls could know, And now sweet Audra's set to grow. Granddaddy soon, a brand new name, Your tender heart will love the same. [Chorus] Thank you, Scott, for loving us well, For beach trips and the tales we tell, For every yes you've ever said, For every prayer beside our bed. A quiet strength, a faithful hand, The truest heart in all the land. [Outro] God dropped you in my lap that day, And there, my Scott, you'll always stay.
