Katie

[Verse 1]
Some folks chase a light their whole life through
And never find a place to stand
Mine was sitting at a double date
While I was holding your best friend's hand
Fifteen and blind to what was waiting
Lord, I never saw Your plan

[Chorus]
Katie, you're my light when the dark rolls in
The steady ground beneath my feet
You're smarter, stronger than you know
You make this family complete
When you wonder if you're good enough
Just look at all your love has done

[Verse 2]
At twenty-one on a movie set
Those blue eyes in the morning light
Over Superior margaritas
We laughed about that long-ago night
Then by the pool at Mama's house
I knelt and asked you to be my wife

[Chorus]
Katie, you're my light when the dark rolls in
The steady ground beneath my feet
You're smarter, stronger than you know
You make this family complete
When you wonder if you're good enough
Just look at all your love has done

[Bridge]
You held me when my stepdad passed
When Grandma went on home to the Lord
You held me when we lost my brother
When I couldn't carry it anymore

[Verse 3]
You gave me three, the best kids in the world
You put them first, put you behind
You love me even when I'm wrong
Turn me back when I'm walking blind
Eighteen years you've made me a better man
I just pray I've been half as good to you

[Chorus]
Katie, you're my light when the dark rolls in
The steady ground beneath my feet
You're smarter, stronger than you know
You make this family complete
Through every hurt we had to face
Your love is what carried us through

[Outro]
Katie, you're the only one who's ever known me
God knew it too, back when we were fifteen
