This Kind of Love

There were nights I couldn't breathe

Falling deep beneath my grief

But your voice became my song

And whispered, "Here is where you belong"

You didn't leave when things went bad

You stayed when I was cracked and sad

And with your touch, the wounds would mend

You never broke, you only bend

This kind of love, so strong, so true

Survives the dark, breaks straight through

It lifts me up when I'm not enough

This kind of love is more than tough

You believed when I let go

You held on and let it show

There were nights I couldn't breathe

Falling deep beneath my grief

But your voice became my song

And whispered, "Here is where you belong"

Now I'm building homes with grace

Giving love in every space

What you gave, I pass along

Your love still makes me strong

This kind of love, so strong, so true

Survives the dark, breaks straight through

It lifts me up when I'm not enough

This kind of love is more than tough

You believed when I let go

You held on and let it show

You are the root beneath my tree

The one who first believed in me
