This song is about finding my wife after praying for her. I never felt ready to get married until God said it was time, because God's time is always right. It's about how marriage is a permanent devotion, something I've thought about my whole life and the very best thing there is.
lyrics
You came into my heart
Like a bullet through my chest
I didn’t have a vest
I wasn’t prepared yet
But God said I was
And now I’m giving up my past
To deserve the very best
My heart in a cast
It’s now not then
And forever ever more
Open up my heart
Come in through the door
But God said I was
And now I’m giving up my past
To deserve the very best
My heart in a cast
I hope for nothing now
I hope for all I have
I gave my only friend
Back to the land
But God said I was
And now I’m giving up my past
To deserve the very best
My heart in a cast
White horses and gold
When the angels sing
You will hear His voice
You will praise His name
It’s not our end
And this will not be a regret
To deserve the very best
And take it in our chest
