[Verse 1] You stood before the altar And promised her your life To honor and protect her When you called her your wife Long before she ever met you Before your story came to be The Father knew her by name And loved her tenderly [Pre-Chorus] She's more than just your wife She's a daughter of the King And how you choose to love her Matters more than you may think [Chorus] How did you treat My daughter? How did you love the one I gave? Did you cherish her heart Or slowly break it? Did you give her your love Or selfishly take it? Did you love her like Christ loved the church? Did you lay your pride down? How did you treat My daughter When no one else was around? [Verse 2] Love isn't only spoken It's shown in what you do In patience and in kindness In staying faithful too Christ gave Himself completely His love was sacrifice So love her with that same heart And lay your pride aside [Bridge] When nobody was watching When no one else could see Were you still the man You claimed that you would be? You can hide it from your neighbors You can hide it from your friends But nothing done in darkness Can ever hide from Him God sees every action God hears every word And one day you'll give an account Before the Lord [Final Chorus] How did you treat My daughter? The one I called you to love? Did you cherish what I gave you? Did your life reflect My love? Did you love her like Christ loved the church? Did you lay your pride down? How did you treat My daughter When no one else was around? [Outro] Nothing done in darkness Can ever hide from Me Every word that's spoken Every hurt I see She's more than just your wife She's My daughter in your care I know her by name I hear every prayer And when you stand before Me To give account one day If I ask... "How did you treat My daughter?" What would you say?
