A Song for Christo

[Verse 1]

Sixteen years ago, our paths crossed,
Never knowing where this road would lead.
From young dreams and promises
To the life we built together,
Every year has shown me more and more
That you are all I’ll ever need.

We’ve laughed until our sides were aching,
We’ve cried when life became too hard.
Sometimes we lost our way,
But we always found each other,
And through every storm,
You never let go of my heart.

[Chorus]

’Cause you are my person, my home, my heart,
My safe place when the world gets hard.
You carry my dreams as if they were your own,
And believe in me when I can’t stand on my own.

And if God was the One who brought us together,
Then I know there was a reason for you and me.
Through every season, through every year,
Christo, I’ll choose you —
Today, tomorrow,
And forever, my dear.

[Verse 2]

Today we stand here, seven years as one,
With sixteen years of love still growing strong.
Seven years ago, I took your hand,
And today I’d do it all again,
Without a second thought,
You’re still where I belong.

Christo, you love me with your gentle heart,
You stand behind everything I do.
When I doubt myself, you believe in me,
And when the road gets hard,
You’re still right here with me.

And with Abby and Bailey by our side,
We’ve made a home filled up with love.
In all the little moments that we share,
I see the life I’ve always dreamed of.

[Chorus]

’Cause you are my person, my home, my heart,
My safe place when the world gets hard.
You carry my dreams as if they were your own,
And believe in me when I can’t stand on my own.

And if God was the One who brought us together,
Then I know there was a reason for you and me.
Through every season, through every year,
Christo, I’ll choose you —
Today, tomorrow,
And forever, my dear.

Bridge — Soft and Emotional

Seven years ago, I made a promise
To love you through it all.
And today I’m standing here beside you,
Still choosing you,
Through every rise and fall.

I don’t know what tomorrow holds for us,
Or how many storms may come our way.
But with God as our anchor,
And your hand holding mine,
I know we’ll find the sunshine again.

And when we’re old and silver-haired,
With a lifetime of stories to share,
I want to wake up next to you, Christo,
And know I spent my life
With my best friend there.

Final Chorus — Big and Emotional

’Cause you are my person, my home, my heart,
The one who loves me just the way I am.
You have the gentlest heart,
You carry me through life,
And in your love, I’ve found where I belong.

Seven years married,
And I’ll thank God for a thousand more.
Out of all the people in this world,
He led my heart to yours,
And today, Christo, I give my heart
To you all over again.

Through everything that lies ahead,
Through every laugh and every tear,
I will keep on holding your hand,
Just as I promised you
Seven years ago.

Outro — Soft Piano

Today makes seven years, my love,
But my heart still chooses you.
Sixteen years of memories,
And a lifetime still to do.

Christo, if I could choose again,
I’d choose you every time.
And for the rest of my life…
You will always be my forever.

Christo, my love, my home, my heart…
Forever you.
