Gospel Lyric Version:  Philip Nicholas

The closer I get to you, the more you make me see
God's given us such a love, and it has captured me

Over and over again I prayed for one like you
     to be with me til the end
And all the while inside I knew He would hear
     cause you're the answer to my prayers.

I'm thanking God for our love
Because it's like a dream come true
And I feel so full inside, With love from God and you

The sweeter and sweeter love grows
And heaven only knows the happiness we will share
You know I'll have a glimpse of heaven's joy
Having you here by my side

Over and over again, I prayed for one like you
  to be with me til the end
And all the while inside I knew He would hear
      cause you're the answer to my prayers.  (repeat)

Thank you Lord
I just want to Thank You Lord!
