Then we were blessed with a song that pointed out how human this baby was, even though He was God in the flesh:


Not to be out-done by their mainstream counterparts, Christian artists jumped onto the love song bandwagon, and many of their offerings found their way into the wedding song milieu. Here's a favorite from SCC which he wrote for his Bride, and I would gladly sing for mine:

I Will Be Here

Tomorrow morning if you wake up
And the sun does not appear,
I will be here.
If in the dark we lose sight of love,
Hold my hand and have no fear,
‘Cause I will be here.

CHORUS
I will be here when you feel like being quiet;
When you need to speak your mind, I will listen.
And I will be here when the laughter turns to crying;
Through the winning, losing, and trying, we’ll be together,
‘Cause I will be here.

Tomorrow morning if you wake up
And the future is unclear,
I will be here.
As sure as seasons are made for change,
Our lifetimes are made for years,
So I will be here.

CHORUS
I will be here, so you can cry on my shoulder;
When the mirror tells us we’re older, I will hold you.
And I will be here to watch you grow in beauty,
And tell you all the things you are to me;
I will be here.

I will be true to the promise I have made,
To you and to the One who gave you to me.
As sure as seasons are made for change,
Our lifetimes are made for years,
So I, I will be here.
We'll be together and i will be here.

Countdown to Christmas - Day 19  

Posted by Benjie in , ,

You knew that I couldn't get through the Christmas season without a Steven Curtis Chapman song, didn't you? I like so many of his Yuletide offerings like "Christmas Is All in the Heart," his version of some of the old Christmas hymns like "Angels We Have Heard on High," "O Come, O Come, Emmanuel!" or "O Come All Ye Faithful." He penned today's song in the mid-1990s telling about how natural a baby the Savior was and how great a Savior this baby is. Here's SC(squared) with "This Baby"
