The Preacher's Kid And The Rebel

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Long hair blowin' in the summer wind Big ol' Ford come cruisin' in The preacher's kid found her rebel heart Somethin' sparked and it tore apart Every plan I thought I had in mind Love like that's the rearrangin' kind [Chorus] Through the mountains and the winding roads Through the prayers that carried heavy loads Hand in hand with faith to light the way I love you more and more with every day You're my one and only, always true God knew what He was doin' givin' me you [Verse 2] October eighth, nineteen eighty-three You stood before the Lord with me Then Mandy came and filled our world with light And Larz came runnin' not far behind Now we're ridin' trails and chasin' streams Campin' under stars and livin' dreams Russ, you always fought to provide a home With you I've never felt alone [Chorus] Through the mountains and the winding roads Through the prayers that carried heavy loads Hand in hand with faith to light the way I love you more and more with every day You're my one and only, always true God knew what He was doin' givin' me you [Bridge] Bren and Sammy joined this crew Brody, Bentlie, Ava, Cyrus too Look what love has built from me and you Russ and Kris, the way it's always been Wouldn't change a thing, I'd do it all again [Verse 3] You carry weight you never let us see A quiet hero to this family Stronger than you'll ever know you are Steady as the morning star Love built on character and grace No one in this world could take your place [Chorus] Through the mountains and the winding roads Through the prayers that carried heavy loads Hand in hand with faith to light the way I love you more and more with every day You're my one and only, always true God knew what He was doin' givin' me you [Outro] Everyone knows Russ and Kris And Lord, I thank You every day for this
