Story Behind the Song Part 2

Hey guys,
Here is song #2 on the album, "I Choose You". This song came very quickly one afternoon while I was playing guitar. It's simple and tender in melody & lyric...not complicated.

What little bit of knowledge I do know about love is that when you choose to love someone, that decision becomes the stake in the ground that holds the line so that when the water rages and the earth quakes, you can look back and know the truth. Choosing is powerful & essential to loving someone the way Christ loves. I'm so grateful He chose you and me - even with all our flaws & failures - it's only by His love can we even begin to choose and scratch the surface to loving our spouses the way He desires.

I Choose You
By Carrie Bowen

I've been wearing you
Everywhere I go
The necklace from India
All the colors sing
Reminding me of how we used to dream

I've been wearing you
Even though I know promises can be broken
But the gold shines through in full belief that our love is unending

Beads on a string
This diamond ring
Means nothing
If you're not beside me
When it's said and done
You're the only one
I choose to love

I've been seeing you in the eyes of her
You're miniture replica
Do you hear me too in her "I love you's"?
Cause they're coming
They're gonna get ya!

I love you and I aways have
I love you and I aways will
