June 22, 1985 -- Mr. and Mrs. Steven Murfitt
I was reflecting back on our ceremony and remembered the special song we chose for that day.
I found the lyrics on Google along with a guitar rendition. Oh the power of the internet!
God, A Woman and a Man
If there never was a singer Then there’d never be song
If there never was a mother Where would the child belong
If a life was not worth living I could not understand
But as a gift was made for giving So was a woman made for a man
God from the beginning Had it in His plan
To join into one flesh This woman and this man
In the fullness of the Spirit’s love We move to make our stand
For the binding of a promise Between God a woman and a man
If there never was a painter Then there’d be no canvas done
If there never was a morning Then there’d be no rising sun
If the music had no melody No purpose for the band
But as a love was meant for sharing So was a woman made for a man
Marriage can be like an adventurous ride
— sometimes like the slow and sweet ferris wheel
—–and other times like the twisting and turnng roller coaster.
God has been faithful all these years to keep us from falling off!
Thank you, Steven, for riding with me all these years.
I’m asking the Lord to bless the next twenty-seven years with His amazing mercy and grace.
God bless you
Gigi
