I Will Be Here

Our good friends sang this for us at our wedding. That was the first time that I had heard the song, which apparently, is quite a famous Christian song. The words (and of course the effort that our friends went through to sing for us in front of 400 odd people) meant a lot to us. Some of you might already be familiar with it, but here it is:

I Will Be Here (Steven Curtis Chapman)

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

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 cryin'

Through the winning, losing and trying

We'll be together

I will be here

Tomorrow morning, if you wake up

And the future is unclear

I will be here

Just as sure as seasons were made for change

Our lifetimes were made for these years

So I will be here

I will be here

And 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

Tomorrow morning, if you wake up

And the sun does not appear

I will be here

Oh, I will be here

As G and I soon embark on the next chapter of our lives with Ger-Ger (Kaelyn?), I am sure, with God's grace, we'll be able to stick together and support each other through all the ups and downs that our expanding family, careers and our marriage may present us with.
