The Light You Built Around Us

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Before the morning finds the sky You're out the door and on your way You never stop to wonder why You just keep working day by day Larry, baby, I see it all You carry us and never fall [Chorus] You work so hard, you love so strong You've been our shelter all along Through every storm you let love shine A light that never fades with time No matter what you're going through We always come first with you [Verse 2] A faithful husband through and through A father steady as the ground You held our babies, watched them grow Now the grandbabies gather round Their biggest fan, their loudest cheer A die hard love that's always here [Chorus] You work so hard, you love so strong You've been our shelter all along Through every storm you let love shine A light that never fades with time No matter what you're going through We always come first with you [Bridge] We had some hard times, I won't pretend Some nights we didn't know how they'd end But you held my hand and you held on tight And turned our darkest days to light [Verse 3] You push us hard to be our best Because you see who we can be You love so deep, you never rest You built the strength of this family Larry, your legacy is plain to see It lives in them, it lives in me [Chorus] You work so hard, you love so strong You've been our shelter all along Through every storm you let love shine A light that never fades with time No matter what you're going through We always come first with you [Outro] Thank you for every mile you've walked Thank you, Larry, for your love For every sacrifice you made You light up all our days
