Bless You

by Bob Halligan, Jr.

On that day- that we met
I just knew- I wouldn’t forget
The gentle way- you touched my soul
And got my fear- under control
Things you said, things you did
How you loved- to forgive
You prayed we’d be- Spirit-led
Then you grabbed my hand and said:

May the Lord bless you- keep you
Love you- treasure you Lord
Bless you- keep you
Love you- treasure you- hey hey

On the days- I show up
With an empty plate- tears in my cup
You’re the first- to let me know
I found the right- place to go
To get with God- get with friends
Find a love- that never ends
Turn my tears- to drops of joy
So I’ll tell every girl and boy:

May the Lord bless you- keep you
Love you- treasure you Lord
Bless you- keep you
Love you- treasure you- hey hey
