From This Day Forth (rough cut - 2007)
A song for a friend's wedding.
Storytelling lyrics wrapped by musical hackings.

Story behind the song
My friends james and Susan asked me if I could sing at their wedding, and I was somewhat shocked. I never played music in front of a group of people before. In any event, one night at 3 AM, I was playing my guitar and I had a picture in my head of their wedding. The joy that was emminating from them was amazing, and that is where the words and soul of the song came from. This was the 1st recording, after the lyrics were finalized at about 4 AM some weekday morning. I never had time to record a formal version, but after over a year, I figured that this one is good enough for now.
Lyrics
All good things comes from Him
Your the perfect gift i see
He led us here to this place
making one from you and me
As we take this step, I just want to say...
From this day forth
I will be right by your side
From this day forth
You will be my crown and light
Let Nothing take away, this joy i have.... with you
Let Him grow my love for you
let it be in all that I do
When I falter show me grace
just as Christ has done for you
As we trust in Him, we'll have the strength to say...
