Thoughts of You Etched Deep in My Heart (CCM Country / Pop)

Intro

Sunset spills gold on the old front porch

Cicadas singing, as the day runs its course

Barefoot in the grass, I remember your laugh

Every quiet moment, love holding us fast

(Memory Verse)

From muddy boots home after Saturday chores

Sharing sweet tea, telling dreams and more

The seasons rolled on, we weathered each test

Your hand in mine, never letting me rest

Verse 1

In the dead of night when fever burns your brow

Sinuses stuffed, can't sleep a wink somehow

You whisper out, "Brother, tell me true,"

How much love's flowing straight from me to you?

Through Lyme quakes and marches 'round the wall

I've been right here, catching every call.

Chorus

I love you big as the endless sky above

Deeper than oceans, wider than God's love

From barn table feasts to angels on guard

You're my faithful friend, etched deep in my heart

How much? Enough to turn pain into song

Hold you through the night till the dawn comes along

Verse 2

You've poured out your soul in dreams vivid and bright

Grandbabies singing, walls trembling in sight

Danette's slow turning, grandkids' cookie delight

Through every quake shaking, you've held to the light

Pre-Chorus

So when sickness hits hard and rest feels far away

Know my love's steady, chasing shadows away

Chorus

I love you big as the endless sky above

Deeper than oceans, wider than God's love

From Michael standing near to Jesus in the fight

You're my warrior brother, shining through the night

How much? Enough to pray walls down with you

Till healing breaks through and makes all things new

Bridge

One day we'll laugh at these feverish nights

Sing victory songs under heaven's bright lights

But till then, rest easy—Angela's on watch

My love's got no end, no measure, no stop

(Final Chorus)

I love you big as the endless sky above

Deeper than oceans, wider than God's love

From every lyric we've birthed, every prayer we've shared

You're etched in eternity, forever prepared

How much? Brother, more than words can say—

Enough to see you rise, healed and okay

Outro

Memory's gentle hand guides you through every hour

Soft as the rain when the world’s without power

Brother, my prayers rise each night on the wind

With hope in my heart you’ll find strength again

Long roads ahead, but we’ll walk every mile

With laughter and tears and a comforting smile

God’s grace will carry us, love lighting the way

We’ll greet every sunrise, together we’ll stay

How much? Forever, as deep as can be

Here by your side through eternity
