Artist picture
Singer-songwriter, arranger and producer: acoustic contemporary folk but ranging into rock/blues/country/jazz/humour...all very eclectic, I'm afraid!
Martin Stirrup Singer/songwriter An old folkie who got back into it... These days I sing and play guitar(s) and other stringed instruments, then score and orchestrate where appropriate. My taste becomes increasingly eclectic ranging from finger-picked folk through country to soft rock mixed in with a few more alternative and eccentric numbers, including the odd novelty foxtrot...

Story behind the song
4 am in Bahrain and I'd moved on to gospel. This is obviously a love song in the style of gospel but interestingly enough you only have to change one word - woman to Jesus in the chorus- and you have a full-blown gospel lyric that works.
Lyrics
Undying love Verse 1 (as refrain) I’ve live a life that’s full to the bursting I’ve seen my fortunes rise and decline oh so many times But the drinking I’ve done, has not been through thirsting Easy and slow have been the ways of my mind refrain C Yet too many times have I slipped from perfection G G7 Too many times have I cried out enough C C7 F Fm But I took a step on the road to redemption C G Em D#m Dm C When I put my faith in an undying love chorus F C Woman you hold me, hold me from danger D G G7 You structure my life and fill out my soul F C Am You rescued my mind when you gave me your body Dm G Em D#m Dm C You know that this love is beyond my control You saw through my camouflage, took me inside you Kindled the fire from the embers within Shook up my life till you knew I’d decide to Stay with your love, start to begin Refrain (backing with offset vocal) Chorus (accentuated over backing) Refrain slow ( finish) Undying love Verse 1 (as refrain) I’ve live a life that’s full to the bursting I’ve seen my fortunes rise and decline oh so many times But the drinking I’ve done, has not been through thirsting Easy and slow have been the ways of my mind refrain C Yet too many times have I slipped from perfection G G7 Too many times have I cried out enough C C7 F Fm But I took a step on the road to redemption C G Em D#m Dm C When I put my faith in an undying love chorus F C Woman you hold me, hold me from danger D G G7 You structure my life and fill out my soul F C Am You rescued my mind when you gave me your body Dm G Em D#m Dm C You know that this love is beyond my control You saw through my camouflage, took me inside you Kindled the fire from the embers within Shook up my life till you knew I’d decide to Stay with your love, start to begin Refrain (backing with offset vocal) Chorus (accentuated over backing) Refrain slow ( finish) Undying love Verse 1 (as refrain) I’ve live a life that’s full to the bursting I’ve seen my fortunes rise and decline oh so many times But the drinking I’ve done, has not been through thirsting Easy and slow have been the ways of my mind refrain C Yet too many times have I slipped from perfection G G7 Too many times have I cried out enough C C7 F Fm But I took a step on the road to redemption C G Em D#m Dm C When I put my faith in an undying love chorus F C Woman you hold me, hold me from danger D G G7 You structure my life and fill out my soul F C Am You rescued my mind when you gave me your body Dm G Em D#m Dm C You know that this love is beyond my control You saw through my camouflage, took me inside you Kindled the fire from the embers within Shook up my life till you knew I’d decide to Stay with your love, start to begin Refrain (backing with offset vocal) Chorus (accentuated over backing) Refrain slow ( finish)
