Johnny Mathis featuring Yolanda Adams Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My love, I'll never find the words
My love, to tell you how I feel
My love, mere words could not explain

Precious love, you held my life within your hands
Created everything I am
You taught me how to live again
Only you cared when I needed a friend
Believed in me through thick and thin
This song is for you, filled with gratitude and love

God bless you, you make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
And you make me feel brand new
I sing this song 'cause you make me feel brand new

My love, whenever I was insecure
You built me up and made me sure
You gave my pride back to me

Precious friend, with you I'll always have a friend
You're someone who I can depend
To walk a path that's sometimes back

Without you, my life has no meaning or rhyme
Like notes to a song out of time
How can I repay you for having faith in me?

God bless you , you make me feel brand new
For God blessed me with you
And you make me feel brand new
I sing this song for you, yes

God bless you, you make me feel brand new
I sing this song for you
You make me feel brand new

For God blessed me with you




And you make me feel brand new
I sing this song for you
