Because
Writers : Daniel Ang and Annabelle Bok
What makes two individuals from different backgrounds come together and hold fast to each other in the face of monumental opposition? Love does.
The love of God overflowing, turning despair into hope and darkness to light, lending strength to belief and passion to conviction, such that two can face an army of fierce resistance and say, with hand tightly grasped in hand, "We will get through this."
This song was written for a couple on their wedding, with hopes and prayers that it not only captures their heartsong for each other, but also serves as a reminder that with God - and His unfailing love - in the picture, love can never fail.
Because
Because in every feathered thing That flies the sky this side of heaven Winging through the breath of God I see your smile
Because in every twinkling star That lights the earth this side of heaven Burning from the touch of God I see your eyes
Eternity stands still this moment Pausing in its endless flow And all creation pauses to behold The sealing of this vow
Today I place my hand in yours With fervant hope ablaze in song To step into forever's chorus To soar with the angelic throng
Because in every tender wind That wanders through the quiet paths Sighing with the voice of God I feel your soul
Annabelle and Daniel recently performed at Pollen, a local singer-songwriters series. "Because" was one of the songs featured.
