Gently, I lay beside you, taking in your beauty through and through

I take your hand, cause I knew by my side is where you would land

Gently, I bask in the wonder that is you

It’s sweeter than morning dew

I feel your touch, which  means so much

I thank God I now have something to hold

You’re the greatest story ever told

When you speak, you give life

When you enter, your presence relieves strife

I never worry when you’re near

Your motive and purpose are clear

Gently, I cherish every moment we share

They show me how much you care

Gently, we continue to love one another through it all

God is always at our beck and call

Gently, what I know for sure

Is that with God, our love is pure.
