DESCRIPTION:
dear best friend,
this was for you.

don't think i don't know the stakes
the shapes you take, the stops and waits
but there were roads and avenues
leading me away from you

instead i chose the fragile choice
of warmest heart and strongest voice
and steady hands to guide me.

i think i know from experience
it's hard to love a man who has made a mess
but thank the Lord that love is work
and every day it gets better

because i chose a fragile choice
of warmest heart and strongest voice
and steady hands to guide me

and when the beauty of our youth
and voluntary servitude
stumbles from our bodies into hardships
and never in my life
have i felt more surrendered, more alive
and i promise that our love will guide us through the darkness.

your pain, your love, your sacrifice
the risen bride of Jesus Christ
and today we come as man and wife
and you've become the rest of my life

because i chose a fragile choice
of warmest heart and strongest voice
and steady hands to guide me
your steady hands to guide me.
