MY LOVE-BEST LOVE

           (A Wedding Song) 
The first time I saw you I'll never forget
Our eyes sent a message that lovers had met
The warmth of your smile that greeted my heart
Meant love from that moment would never depart.


The time spent together has helped us to grow
The blending of spirits has lead us to know
This love demonstrated the truth of our word
Now promises given, with Jesus as Lord. 

REFRAIN
My love, best love, I pledge to you today
Forever through this life with you to stay
You are the priceless gift I now embrace
For blessing us with His amazing grace
My love, best love, I pledge to you today.

A MARRIAGE VOW

What makes a marriage last through life
Is there a secret to be found?
Does chance alone fulfill this dream
Or are there mysteries yet unseen?

When couples meet becoming friends
And love is stirred within their hearts          
Their differences become the stage
For both to write a brand new page.

A man's attraction for a wife
Is built with passions from the mind
But in response a woman's need
Is affirmation's tender deed.

As marriage plans fall into place
Two hearts must seek to join as one
But conflict comes if either mate
Build walls with locked-up iron gates.

Love is a triad that God planned
The "eros"man must understand
That "philos" builds a wife's esteem
When Jesus' love is made supreme.

The marriage vow is then complete
As man and wife kneel at His feet
Committed vows communicate
A life-long pledge to validate.

TEARS

What have I done that tears should come my way
That sorrow's piercing sword should crush my soul
With hidden fears that trouble me today
And leave me helpless, torn, too weak to pray?

Death struck and buried all my hopes and dreams
The light of day has turned to darkest night
And memory past no longer whispers peace
But only haunting echoes are released!

The grave that stole the joy within my heart
And left tomorrows hopes all torn apart
Cries out in loneliness and deep despair
To hear some promise of God's love and care.

The One Who sees each tear fall from our eyes
Was wounded for our sins and crucified
He conquered death to set the captive free
And through His Name we claim the victory!

DADDY! COME HOME!

The house seems so empty since you went away
You promised to call me and come back to stay
But time has forgotten, I feel so alone
Oh daddy! Oh daddy! Why don't you come home?

I thought you loved mommy she cared about you
The struggles you're facing seemed only a few
But love's disappointments had torn you apart
Oh daddy! Oh daddy! Come back to my heart!

I have only memories to comfort my days
The tears keep on flowing I live in a daze.
I wanted my daddy to give me away
And walk down the Isle on my wedding day.

I pray every morning that you will come back
And help heal the hurting from bitterness past.
God's love can unite us restoring the flame
Oh daddy! Oh daddy! Please call on His name.
