Heaven Sent Me Wendell

Lyrics

[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
