Story behind the song
I can't thank Rod enough for sharing these words with me, and letting me put them to music! I hope you enjoy this song as much as I enjoyed writing the music and playing it!
Lyrics
With You (C)2010
Words by Rod Coleman
Music by Todd G. Strachan
vs
Some men pray to gods of stone
Others think we're all alone
Both are slaves to what they say and do
But you're the one who set me free
You're the one who lives in me
Now I share my whole life with You
(chorus)
With you I don't have to dream
I finally know what real love means
I don't fear what tomorrow brings
With You...I have everything
vs
This world is a traveling show
Amusing those who choose to go
Then it's off to fool somebody new
So many have never heard
Even one redeeming word
Redeeming words that come alive with You
(chorus)
With You I don't have to dream
I finally know what real love means
I don't fear what tomorrow brings
With You...I have everything
(bridge)
From creation You've never changed, never changed!
Always constant! You stayed the same!
I'll lift my voice and praise Your name
Praise Your name...I'll praise Your name
vs
Give me strength so I can be
Everything You want me to be
Through all my trials You bring me vic-tor-ries
I'm not worried, I'm not afraid
When it comes my final day
Because I know I will forever be with You
