Verse 1:
I see the burden behind his eyes
But sometimes I forget to pray, I criticize
Lord, help me see him the way You do
A man You’ve called, a heart made new
He needs my kindness more than my sighs
So teach me to lift, not pass him by
Chorus:
Oh God — I lift him up to You
Give him strength for the hard days too
For the work he does and the fight he fights
Let Your power be his might
Give him gentleness, give him grace
And the courage to lead in Your holy name
Verse 2:
He doesn’t say it, but I know it’s there
The pressure to provide, to guide, to care
And I can’t ease it with just my hands
But I can hold him up where true hope stands
Lord, shape his heart in righteousness
And fill our home with gentleness
Help me speak life when he feels low
And trust that You’re still in control
Chorus:
Oh God — I lift him up to You
Give him strength for the hard days too
For the work he does and the fight he fights
Let Your power be his might
Make me a helper, not just a wife
A voice of peace in a noisy life
Give him gentleness, give him grace
And the courage to lead in Your holy name
Bridge:
Give him wisdom when the lines are blurred
Firm conviction on Your Word
Let our children see in him
A man who walks with discipline
But loves with joy, and laughs with ease
A living light on bended knees
Final Chorus:
So I lift him up to You again
My husband, my love, my closest friend
Make me soft where I need to bend
Strong in prayer until the end
And a shelter by his side, Amen.
