Wendell

[Verse 1]
Some days the world moves way too fast
Some burdens weren't built to last
I was clocking in and fading out
Losing pieces, full of doubt
Then you knelt down and prayed with me
Said, baby, God will set you free

[Chorus]
Wendell, you keep me lifted up
On my good days and my rough
When my strength runs low, you fill my cup
Heaven sent me a man of love
I thank the Lord on bended knee
For the way you carry me

[Verse 2]
You said, go part-time, I'll hold the line
Took on the weight, said, love, you're fine
Then the day you told me, let it go
Walk away and let your spirit grow
You gave me time I couldn't buy
You gave me back the light inside

[Chorus]
Wendell, you keep me lifted up
On my good days and my rough
When my strength runs low, you fill my cup
Heaven sent me a man of love
I thank the Lord on bended knee
For the way you carry me

[Bridge]
A husband, a daddy, a brother true
An uncle and a shield, that's you
A God fearing man in every way
You live your faith from day to day

[Verse 3]
On the mornings when I can't get out of bed
You bring me sunshine, kiss my head
On the nights the storm won't let me rest
You hold me close against your chest
Robert Wendell Thomas, Senior, my king
Praise be to God for everything

[Chorus]
You keep me lifted, lifted up
On my good days and my rough
When my strength runs low, you fill my cup
Heaven sent me a man of love
I thank the Lord on bended knee
For the way you carry me

[Outro]
Through every storm, through every prayer
I turn around and you are there
Praise be to God, my devoted man
Forever held in your loving hands
