This Time, I Want to Do It Right

This time, I want to do it right.

I want to trust you so perfectly

That I’ll never doubt you.

I want to believe in you

More than I believe in myself.

I want to love you in such a way

That if nothing else, I can at least say

That I loved you as perfectly

As this imperfect person can.

I want to think about your needs

So much that I put them above my own.

I want to consider you

Before I consider myself.

I want you to be free.

I want you to dance and live

As you always have.

I just want to dance with you.

I want us to find God together,

Pray together,

Read together,

Love God more than we love each other.

This time I want to do it right.
