Lyrics

More Than I Was

[Verse 1]

Twenty years ago, I was just a young man,
Full of life, with dreams in my hands.
Invincible and strong, or so I believed,
But fate had a way of turning the leaves.
Woke up one morning, in a bed so still,
Long hair falling, with a heart to fill.
A machine at my side, breathing for me,
Life hanging by threads, but oh, I could see.

[Chorus]

Thank you doesn’t cover the grace that I feel,
To the nurses and doctors who made my heart heal,
You’re more than just names in a memory's song,
You’re the heroes who’ve carried me all along.

[Verse 2]

Those nurses who watched, became my dear friends,
In those quiet hours, love never ends.
They whispered sweet words and held back my fears,
And taught me to fight through the darkest of years.
The doctors that saved me, I owe them my breath,
They danced with my fate and comforted death.
I promised each moment, I'd make it worth while,
To celebrate life, give the world a smile.

[Chorus]

Thank you doesn’t cover the grace that I feel,
To the nurses and doctors who made my heart heal,
You’re more than just names in a memory's song,
You’re the heroes who’ve carried me all along.

[Bridge]

God's Hand was upon me, guiding my way,
With a plan for my life that I now embrace.
Through trials and troubles, I’ve risen above,
To celebrate His word and share all my love.
I climbed every mountain, faced shadows of night,
But here I stand shining, guided by light.

[Verse 3]

To my beautiful wife, you were there every day,
Morning and night, your love lit the way.
Your strength gave me courage, your faith kept me strong,
In this journey together, how could I go wrong?
To my parents in heaven, your love was my start,
Though long since you’ve gone, you live in my heart.
You cared for me gently, by my side you would stay,
Continuing spirit that guides me today.

[Chorus]

Thank you doesn’t cover the grace that I feel,
To the nurses and doctors who made my heart heal,
You’re more than just names in a memory's song,
You’re the heroes who’ve carried me all along.

[Outro]

So here’s to the journey, to life and to love,
To the promises made and the grace from above.
With each passing moment, I rise and I stand,
More than I was, with this life in my hands.
Thank you for my life, and what’s still in store,
With a heart full of gratitude, I’ll give even more.
