May God Bless Our Love

I was hoping to get this song recorded and placed on the internet by valentines day but due to sickness we weren't able to record it. I really struggle to write positive love songs, like I've said before I prefer the old songs of lament. I have scribbled a number of songs which I written for valentines but this was one of the only ones I was happy with. The idea came after hearing someone say the title somewhere, little did I know at the time that a song of the same title had already been recorded. The songs concept talks of a love that's forever changing and along the way the couple are asking for help and consent from The Lord to keep them together. When writing the song I was picturing the type of words which would want to be heard at a wedding and also the type of love which I suppose the majority of people are after. I can't think of anything else to write at the moment, short and sweet. Enjoy!


Feel free to comment on your thoughts or share my blog etc I'd be very very very happy.

Verse 1
Let me be there when your hair turns silver
Let us grow old in our ways together,
As young as we are today,
With you I want to see through the change.

Together the house will fall around us
And we’ll repair as and when we must,
Along all of this we’ll ask from above
For a helping hand may God bless our love.

Bridge
In fairness, in respect and in all things the best
May be bless our love until we’re put to rest.

Chorus
Until death do us part, until the stars
Refuse to shine for you, for you.

Verse 2
The years will see us through thick and thin,
When it’s said aloud or kept within
But I know we will forget and forgive
When the worst is said the best we’ll relive.

When we were young we hit the dance floor,
We’ll retire with the anniversary waltz
And even then we’ll test out luck
With a helping hand may God bless our love.

Bridge
In honour and in trust, in giving and in touch,
May he bless our love until it proves too much.

Chorus
Until death do us part, until the stars
Refuse to shine for you, for you.

Bridge
In words and in time, in your service and in mine,
May he bless our love until the great divide.

Chorus
Until death do us part, until the stars
Refuse to shine for you, for you.

Let me be there when your hair turns silver
Let us grow old in our ways together.
