My Wife

Hold her in your arms Lord God.
Mold her into what you need her to be.
Prepare her for the day we meet.
I don't know who she is,
But I'm fully aware that you do.
So please keep her safe tonight.
Keep her from the arrows,
Which Satan may try to send her.
Be with her this night,
In her waking hours and in her dreams.
Draw her ever-closer to you.
From to time, remind her of me,
Though she knows not who I am.
I know you'll keep her back,
To be saved for the love I may one day give.
But for tonight
Just keep her safe in your loving arms.
I can't help but praise you for her,
though I don't actually know her.
I love her already.
I can't wait to meet her.
