"Thou Art Fair"

Lyrics to the most recent song I wrote for my wonderful husband, Drew. Chorus is taken from Song of Solomon, in case you didn't pick up on that :)

Verse 1:
Lifted through the front door
Rose petals carpet the floor
All that I have all I am
I give to you and receive from you
We are one
Your banner over me is love

Chorus:
Thou art fair, my love
Thou hast eyes like a dove
Thou art fair, my love
There is no spot in thee, in thee

Verse 2:
You have captivated my heart
With one glance of your eyes
My firsts and my lasts in your hands
My beloved and my friend
All you are
Is covered in the purest white (chorus)

Bridge:
We have this life together
Poured out on the altar
But tonight just hold me close
Until the day breathes and the shadows flee... (chorus)
