Love & Family from Love & Family by William and Glenna Marshall

I'm waking early on a Saturday morning
I spilled my coffee on the couch
There's a little person doing back-flips off the loveseat
I just caught a Lego in the mouth
This is love and family

Yesterday I cleaned up messes all day
The laundry never seemed to end
But the footsteps upstairs are answers to a thousand prayers
And somehow I just cannot complain

This is love and family, and we want to add to the beauty
Every day is a sure and certain sign
That we are desperate for the love of Christ

Just had an argument with my husband
Over socks laying on the floor
But he loves to write me songs
And buys me flowers 'just because'
So I cannot stay angry for long

There are days when I am moody and short-tempered
With the ones I love the most
But they show unending grace and forgiveness just the same
When I am so undeserving of both

Oh Jesus be our portion, supply what we need
Things like mercy and forgiveness
Help us to treasure You the most in this place we call our home
'Cause You are everything we could ever need
