Whispered Lullabies

All these empty feelings
Thoughts crashing in my head
Fill me with hate
Fill me with pain
Fill me with lies.

All these empty promises
Beckon for my heart
They want my time
They want my devotion
They want my life.

But what all those
unfulfilling lies
Don't recognize
I do despise
Their filthy stench and stain

I don't need that pain
I brush it off
'Cause I've got one on my side
Who has crushed the world

He's on my side
Through every trial
Through every false turn
Through tears and smiles

And he will not give up on me
He holds my heart
And sings whispered lullabies in my ear.

Progression

A stranger I once was to you,
A shadow in the night;
But now, my love, our hearts are one,
Bright shining in the sun.

For where one walks the other is,
Distant but not apart;
This dwelling place takes sacred part,
You live within my heart.

I love you more than words can say
Or deeds can ever show,
But maybe in the passing time
This depth you'll get to know.

Your name comes first each morning new,
And final thought each night;
Impossible to flee my mind,
Forever in my life.

So with each breath and passing day
I hope it won't grow old
For you to hear, "My dear, I'm here,
Together 'till the end."

I love you, too

The two of us
have fallen in love;
A match from above;
My heart's in your hands.

We pray and we sing
to our Savior and King,
Who put us together
to increase our faith.

Our hearts intertwined;
Can't tear them apart.
I'm so thankful for you,
And all that you do.

You
Comb my hair
and
Hold me tight
and
Kiss me soft
and
Whisper "I love you."

You
Pick me up
and
Treat me so well
and
Protect my heart
and
Take good care of me.

Through laughter and tears,
I hope the next four years
brings us down the path
that we're destined to go.

Let's trust in our God;
It's all we can do;
And know in your heart
that I love you, too.
