I can wait for the show

You love me for who I am
but make me want to be better
You give me strength to stand
but make my knees go weaker

You show me all yourself
but remain my little secret
You allow me to be myself
but wipe my eyes when wet

You are everything to me
but still there's more to know
You are all I want to see
but I can wait for the show.

My father's voice

So many year ago
I was told by my dad
that choices have consequences
some good and some bad

So I have always tried
the best that I could
to make my choices
accepting bad and good

When I fell in love with you

I heard my fathers voice
choose the one to love
and always love your choice

 

A more perfect union

When I think of all that went into
the day that I first met you
I know that we were meant to be
together for eternity

It was heaven that brought me to you
by heaven we started anew
I thank God every day
for bring you into my way

We were meant to be tied
so I made you bride
A more perfect union are we
that's easy to see.

Lets get on with living

Lets just get to living
forget the daily grind
on with the forgiving
leave it all behind

Pack our bags and run away
grab your shorts and sandals
somewhere there is sun all day
and dinner is lit by candles

I could find a school and teach
and you a little farm
nights we find a private beach
and keep each other warm

I dream of the day that this true
a day when we pack it in
Alone with just the two of us
no where, no why no when

The love that lives between us

The love the lives between us
is far larger than the space
that some may see as selfishness
when we're standing face to face

The love that lives between us
grows stronger every hour
as it fills with grace and forgiveness
to surround us on our tower

The love that lives between us
is an example to the world
a shining beacon of peacefulness
is held by boy and girl

The love that lives between us
is a shelter from the storm
a fortress built of tenderness
a comfort to keep us warm

The love that lives between us
keeps us anchored in heavens bay
where we can joy in hopefulness
and bask in the light of his way.

I was made to love you

I could never love another
the way that I love you
I know you as a wife a friend and lover
a trust strong and bond true

If I were to live forever
and search my life as long
I know that there shall never
be another love this strong

I was made to love you
take me at my word
I speak of love in full view
my best remains unheard.

Gathering what's sown

Share with me your heart completely
trust it in my care
though storms assail I'll never fail thee
or loose the gift you gave to bear

Share your life with me forever
stay thou near my side
I will keep thy pace and tire never
match you stride for stride

Share your soul with me and heaven
your sinful thoughts on me lie
to find perfection is to be forgiven
so together we shall fight and try

Share your touch with me alone
embrace my every part
spend a life gathering what's sown
and place them in our heart
