Worship Wednesday - God Gave Me You - Dave Barnes

One month from today I will marry the love of my life, the person God prepared just for me. Over the past few days, the stress of planning for the wedding has caught up to me. However, I told Scott the other night, when the wedding and honeymoon are over, all that will remain is the marriage that came from it all and I'm so thankful that we have such a strong relationship.


This is so much more than a wedding, so much more than the planning, it's about celebrating how God is revealing parts of His plan in our lives. God knew before the earth began what the plan would be for the both of our lives. I jokingly say that God had a sense of humor when he put us together, we are polar opposites. But, I thank God for allowing us to meet and fall in love and I pray his blessings over our marriage everyday as we strive to first love God, love each other, and love our families.

God's plan is perfect. God knew I would need Scott more over the past year than ever before. I thank God for bringing Scott into my life and I'm excited to see what God has in store for the both of us as we begin our journey together.


I’ve been a walking heartache
I’ve made a mess of me
The person that I’ve been lately
Ain’t who I wanna be

But you stay here right beside me
Watch as the storm goes through
And I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you

There’s more here than what were seeing
A divine conspiracy
That you, an angel lovely
Could somehow fall for me
You’ll always be love’s great martyr
Ill be the flattered fool
& I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you

On my own I’m only
Half of what I could be
I can’t do without you
We are stitched together
And what love has tethered
I could baby, never undo

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you, gave me you.
Gave me you.
