From This Day On

From This Day On

VS. 1
I have seen many mornings
Through my own eyes
The seasons change before me
Winters snows follow summer rains

VS. 2
Ev'ry path that I've chosen
Has been my own decision
But somewhere in the evening light
I have prayed for a miracle
Someone to share my life with.

Chorus
From this day on, my heart will beat with your heart
From this day forward, your life will be my very breath
From this moment on I chose to take a chance upon tomorrow with you
From this moment on our lives shall be as one.

VS 3
I am called from my fam'ly
You from your home
We are called to be one now
One in mind, one in body and soul

VS 4
And we ask our God's blessing
Upon our life together
The keeper of our wedding vows
Stays with us ev'ry day of our lives

BRIDGE
Wherever you travel
Wherever you roam
I will stay with you
For I am at home.

Awesome, Sam! I thought of my hubby when I read this--our vows, our relationship. I agree with "I will stay with you, for I am home. Beautiful, hugs, Sara
