Met you in the autumn
My summer and my rain
We shared a kind of shelter
We shared a kind of pain

You were my destroyer
You broke through years of shame
And you told me to have courage
To not be so afraid

Then you brought me flowers
Reminding me there's beauty still
I look at them for hours
'Cause I love you and always will

You were my protector
I was your surprise
I've never known another
To be quite so alive

But you have run your race now
And I am left behind
You told me to keep smiling
To go on with my life

And they all brought you flowers
Reminding me there's beauty still
I look at them for hours
'Cause I love you and always will

Jesus, are you with me?
Do you still hear my prayers?
Sometimes, when it's quiet
I don't feel you there

Maybe I've been distant
Maybe I've grown cold
But there's something in the silence
And deep down I still know

'Cause then I see the flowers
Reminding me there's beauty still
I look at them for hours
'Cause I love you and always will
