In that light, here are some of my favorite love songs.
This Fragile Breath – Todd Agnew
Grace Like Rain
I searched the world for a song that I could sing,
Praise to my King, a gift that I could bring.
But no music I found could compare to You
Not one could do justice to Your glory.
What are my songs compared to Yours?
Chorus:
You speak with thunder and lightning
Your voice shakes the mountains
The foundations of the earth.
All I can offer is this fragile breath,
With each one I'll praise You
With each one I'll praise You more.
I searched the world for a poem I could read,
A rhyme that would bring glory to my King.
But no writing I found was worthy of
This God high above all other gods.
What are my words compared to Yours?
Chorus
Speak to me, speak to me please.
Won't You speak to me?
Chorus
Look at Me – The Waiting
Blue Belly Sky
Golden bars of sunlight come sneaking through the shutters
Laying stripes on my back like a zebra.
Sweaty fingers turning pages, and clinging to the bed
Like it's a bride and I never want to leave her.
Paul calls me a saint and the mattress shakes with laughter
And the sheets let out a chuckle while the pillow holds one in.
I don't believe a word I read, but the man is so convincing
Says You're calling me a winner of a game I never win.
But with every word I read I feel Your eyes upon me
And I don't mind at all.
Chorus
I love the way You look at me, the way You steer Your eyes
To see the bride beneath the harlot's skin, the virtue underneath the sin.
I love the way You look at me, when You lift the veil and You repeat Your vow.
Get up for the shower, wash, and scrub, and scour every part
As if a cleaner man could better bear the shame.
Now, move out into the sunlight, a frightened fool
There's reason for my fright, for I'm a messenger who's forgetting why he came.
But with every step I take I feel Your eyes are on me,
And I don't mind at all.
For when You look at me, You see every drop of blood You spent.
Like the color that comes creeping to my face.
It is such sweet embarrassment to see the dowry that You paid for my cold embrace.
But I'll never, never, never let You go because...
Chorus
Who Am I -- Casting Crowns
Casting Crowns
Who am I
That the Lord of all the earth,
Would care to know my name,
Would care to feel my hurt?
Who am I
That the bright and morning star,
Would choose to light the way,
For my ever wandering heart?
Bridge:
Not because of who I am,
But because of what You've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who You are.
Chorus:
I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still You hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling,
And You've told me who I am.
I am Yours.
I am Yours.
Who am I
That the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again?
Who am I
That the voice that calmed the sea,
Would call out through the rain,
And calm the storm in me?
Not because of who I am,
But because of what You've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who You are.
I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still You hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling,
And You've told me who I am.
I am Yours.
Not because of who I am,
But because of what You've done.
Not because of what I've done,
But because of who You are.
I am a flower quickly fading,
Here today and gone tomorrow,
A wave tossed in the ocean,
A vapor in the wind.
Still You hear me when I'm calling,
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling,
And You've told me who I am.
I am Yours.
I am Yours.
I am Yours.
Whom shall I fear?
Whom shall I fear?
'Cause I am Yours.
I am Yours.
