Words and Music by Don Francisco, 1977 (Capo 1st Fret if desired)
D A
I could never promise you on just my strength alone
G D A
That all my life I'd care for you, and love you as my own
D A
I've never known the future, I only see today
C Êm7 A D G A
Words that last a lifetime would be more than I could say
D A
But the love inside my heart today(tonight) is more than mine alone
G D A
It never changes, it never fails, never seeks it's own
D A
And by the God who gives it, and who lives in me and you
C Em7 A D
I know the words I speak today(tonight) are words I'm going to do
(Chorus)
Bm Em G A
And so I stand before you now for all to hear and see
G Em A D
I promise you in Jesus' name the love He's given me
Bm Em G A
And through the years on earth and as eternity goes by
G Em A
The life and love He's given us are never going to die
(Interlude)
(Chorus)
Bm Em G A
And so I stand before you now for all to hear and see
G Em A D
I promise you in Jesus' name the love He's given me
Bm Em G A
And through the years on earth and as eternity goes by
G Em A
The life and love He's given us are never going to die
G Em A D
The life and love He's given us are never going to die
