lyrics

She's like a flower of white
Wild in the fields, reflecting sunlight
And royalty is what she deserves
But I am a pauper, I was born poor
Oh, Lord, have you found a man worthy?
A prince for this daughter of grace?

Please, please, please
Give her the best man that you see
And please, please, please
Let him be me

Well I know Lord, that you know her well
From your very house this angel fell
And I'd work a lifetime, give my back to this land
Just for a chance at that lady's hand
Oh, Lord, I know I ain't worthy
But even dead men can rise by your grace

Let him be true and faithful to her
And grow him in faith, make him wiser
Just let all her needs be satisfied
And if you have yet to decide the means, then please...

Please, please
Give her the best man that you see
And please, please, please
Let him be me

If you make a blind man see, let him be me
