Vail
In the whirlwind of the mountain air I knew
My life would find fulfillment spent with you.
I sensed a sure conviction on my life
That it would bloom if you would be my wife.
We rode through cobbled streets and by a stream,
We sat beside the water's edge and lived a fabled dream.
My heart was filled with you and bore a song
That carried love's enchantment all day long.
It has ever changed the way I look at Vail.
Beyond the splendorous views and each detail,
It gave me grander views and heights of love
That I felt and feel so quite unworthy of.
If you would marry me, the view would change.
Instead of feeling small beside this mountain range,
Our lives would soar and mingle with the galaxies
And I would sing in love's uplifting majesty.
God gave to me a gift that day in Vail.
He spoke into my heart a blessed tale
That you and I would marry and abide
Together where two soul mates ever hide.
Nature's beauty far exceeds the camera lens
And love extends where nature's beauty ends.
I found that day the blessed Savior's will,
To marry you and be forever filled.
