Lyric–This Is Our Love

First post here–apropos that this lyric excerpt come from the first song we ever wrote together after we got married on 1-1-05…

Verse 1:

What is happiness, what is peace?

I thought I’d never know until you told me

What is holiness, what is grace?

I thought I’d never know until you showed me

What is faithfulness, what is joy?

I thought I’d never know until you told me

What is righteousness, what is love?

I thought I’d never know until you showed me

Bridge:

Dry bones, bid despair goodbye

Dry fields, twist and shout

Oh, let us shower this love upon each other

Cuz baby that’s what life is all about

Chorus:

You pour the water on the fire of my discontent

And chase away the enemies of my soul

You pour the truth upon the raging lies that hold me back

And play the melody that makes me whole

This is our love, this is our love…
