For all the times I felt cheated, I complained
You know I love to complain
For all the wrongs I repeated, though I was to blame
I still cursed that rain
I didn't have a prayer, I didn't have a clue
And then out of the blue

God gave me you to show me what's real
There's more to life than just how I feel
And all that I'm worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for, thought I didn't know why
Now I do, 'cause God gave me you

For all the times I wore my self-pity like a favorite shirt
All wrapped up in hurt
For every glass I saw, I saw half empty
Now it overflows like a river through my soul
From every doubt I had, I'm finally free
Now I truly believe

God gave me you to show me what's real
There's more to life than just how I feel
And all that I'm worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for, thought I didn't know why
Now I do, 'cause God gave me you

For all the times I wore my self-pity like a favorite shirt
All wrapped up in hurt
For every glass I saw, I saw half empty
Now it overflows like a river through my soul
From every doubt I had, I'm finally free
Now I truly believe

In your arms, I'm someone new
With every tender kiss from you
I must confess, I am blessed

God gave me you to show me what's real
There's more to life than just how I feel
And all that I'm worth is right before my eyes
And all that I live for, thought I didn't know why
Now I do, 'cause God gave me you

For all the times I wore my self-pity like a favorite shirt
All wrapped up in hurt
For every glass I saw, I saw half empty
Now it overflows like a river through my soul
From every doubt I had, I'm finally free
Now I truly believe
