Like a warrior to a King,
I will fight for you
Like a servant to a Lord,
I will care for you
Like a child to a Father,
I adore you
Like a bride to a Groom, I wait for you
But what I do is a
weak attempt
To show my love for you
After what you have
done for me
Like a King to a warrior,
You lead me, never ·
taking me astray
You see things I cannot see
But most of all
You gave Your life
so I might live
You did this,
All for me
Like a warrior to a King,
I will fight for you
Like a servant to a Lord,
I will care for you
Like a child to a Father,
I adore you
Like a bride to a Groom,
I wait for you
But what I do is a
weak attempt
To show my love for you
After what you have
done for me
Like a Lord to a servant,
You provide for me
You see that I am
never in need
You treat me kindly,
with love and respect
But most of all,
You perform the
greatest act of service
for me
You do this,
All for me
Like a warrior to a King,
I will fight for you
Like a servant to a Lord,
I will care for you
Like a child to a Father,
I adore you
Like a bride to a Groom,
I wait for you
But what I do is a
weak attempt
To show my love for you
After what you have
done for me
Like a Father to a child,
You train me,
Disciplining me when
I do wrong
You laugh with me
And show me the path
That I should choose
But most of all,
You sacrificed everything
for my own good
You did this,
All for me
Like a warrior to a King,
I will fight for you
Like a servant to a Lord,
I will care for you
Like a child to a Father,
I adore you
Like a bride to a Groom,
I wait for you
But what I do is a
weak attempt
To show my love for you
After what you have
done for me
Like a Groom to a bride,
You handpicked me,
Although for what reason
I was chosen
I can’t see
You paid my dowry for me,
When I had no other way,
You have gone to prepare a
place for me
Paradise is where it lies
But most of all,
You are returning
You’re coming back,
And it’s all for me
Like a warrior to a King,
I will fight for you
Like a servant to a Lord,
I ·will care for you
Like a child to a Father,
I adore you
Like a bride to a Groom,
I wait for you.
But what I do is a
weak attempt
To show my love for you
After what you have
done for me
