I wrote this for my beloved wife, and it was played at our wedding.
It is based on this beautiful verse:
"Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes, it is a tree of life."
~ Proverbs 13:12
I hope you enjoy the song, and that it inspires you to believe that God can fulfill your deepest longings.
Here are the lyrics:
Far away as Saturn, shining in the distance
Hope was just a shadow, billions of miles away
Everything that mattered, taken out of orbit
All my dreams were scattered, then my world changed
And then you came, a shooting star across my night
An angel dancing with a smile bright as starlight
You took the past away, the wrongs have been made right
And then you came, a tree of love, a tree of life
I just want to love you, treat you as a treasure
God help me to show you , all that you mean to me
When you need a shoulder, all of me I offer
When the world grows colder, I’ll warm your heart
And then I’ll come and bring His light into your life
I’ll take your burdens so your so soul can find new life
No matter what the cost, I’ll make the sacrifice
To you I’ll be a tree of love, a tree of life
All this time, you and I
Have waited, have waited, for love to come, to be alive
I choose you, promise to
Forever and ever, our future is so bright
Say yes to me and be the star that never dies
I’ll hold your hand, I will be always by your side
We’ll chase our dreams through sun,through storms, through day or night
Step into something new, we’re recreating life
Let our story show His glory, and illuminate the night
Let our story show His glory, we’ll reflect His perfect light
