oh what a relief
thank you Jesus
you know of what I speak
even though i asked him for some space
my dearest friend
was always there for me

he pulled me back
when in so many ways
I tried to walk away
and making a million and one excuses
to the one I truly love
in so many ways my heart
didn't want to go
but in many ways my heart
i wouldn't allow to stay
where it shouldn't be
no matter how much i want his heart with me
to him it wouldn't be fair
because i do care
and i know he loves me
i must set him free
a promise i made to him
if there was a change
in a heartbeat i'd have to back away
my friend said have faith
something is wrong
it will all turn out right
for the first time in my life
I am so happy to hear that negative
was a positive thing
as explained
it was a medical mistake
thank you Jesus for what you have given me
i don't have to give up the man i love
I praise you sweet Jesus
and thank you even more
with these tears that escape me
for his love that got me through
and the relief my heart heard today
