Missing us

You’ll Always Be My Best Friend

An Original Gospel Song for Jarvis

[Verse 1]

There were days when we were miles apart,
But you were always close to my heart.
Through the phone and FaceTime late at night,
You gave me reasons to smile through life.
Even when we couldn’t be face to face,
Your voice brought comfort, your love brought grace.
And little did I know back then,
You’d become my love, my husband, my friend.

[Verse 2]

I’ll never forget the day I came for you,
The day our dreams began to feel so true.
I picked you up, and we made our vows,
A moment I still remember now.
That week at your parents’ house stays with me,
A precious time that means so much to me.
Those memories live deep within my soul,
Some things in life are more precious than gold.

[Chorus]

Jarvis, you’ll always be my best friend,
Some bonds in life don’t have to end.
Though we’re no longer husband and wife,
You brought so much joy into my life.
You showed me love in a special way,
And I’ll thank the Lord for you every day.
Our story changed, but one thing is true,
I’ll always be grateful for the gift of you.

[Verse 3]

You were so thoughtful, gentle, and kind,
You cared for my needs and kept me in mind.
You made me feel special, more than you knew,
And helped me discover the woman I grew into.
You gave me a joy I can’t explain,
A love that left a mark that will remain.
And though life took us a different way,
I’ll cherish the memories every day.

[Chorus]

Jarvis, you’ll always be my best friend,
Some bonds in life don’t have to end.
Though we’re no longer husband and wife,
You brought so much joy into my life.
You showed me love in a special way,
And I’ll thank the Lord for you every day.
Our story changed, but one thing is true,
I’ll always be grateful for the gift of you.

[Bridge — Gospel Choir Builds]

God knows the tears, God knows the years,
The happy moments, the laughter, the tears.
And even when life changes what we know,
The seeds of love can continue to grow.
I don’t regret the road we have traveled,
For the lessons and memories we unraveled.
And if there’s one thing I want you to see,
You’ll always have a special place in me.

[Final Chorus — Full Choir]

Jarvis, you’ll always be my best friend,
A special bond that time cannot erase.
Though we have walked down different roads,
I’ll always cherish the love you showed.
You brought me joy, you helped me grow,
And there’s so much I want you to know.
No matter where this life takes you,
I’ll always be grateful for the gift of you.

[Outro — Soft Piano and Choir]

You’re more than a chapter in my story,
A part of my life I’ll always hold dear.
Jarvis, my friend, I pray God blesses you,
And fills your life with love all through the years.
You’ll always be my best friend.
And I’ll always be thankful for you.
