True Love Song

.
Part of the little routine I have when I find myself falling "in love" (well stage II "in love", as I kinda fall in love daily . . .maybe I'm French?),

is that I start to continually ask St. Joseph to pray for me to be a true man in the relationship (a man cares for the other's soul, a boy only wants the other's body),

I than watch "the Passion of the Christ" as a very visual reminder of what real love is and how I am suppose to love.

Lastly, I send a mix cd (or an MP3 in an e-mail) to the object of my affection with this song as the opener, to remind her of Who loves her more, and Who she should love before me (romance is such an easy idol).

Love Song - Third Day

I've heard it said that a man would climb a mountain
Just to be with the one he loves
How many times has he broken that promise
It has never been done.
I've never climbed the highest mountain
But I walked the hill of Calvary

Chorus:
Just to be with you, I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you, I'd give anything
I would give my life away.

I've heard it said that a man would swim the ocean
Just to be with the one he loves
How may times has he broken that promise
It can never be done
I've never swam the deepest ocean
But I walked upon the raging sea

(Bridge)
I know that you don't understand
the fullness of My love
How I died upon the cross for your sins
And I know that you don't realize
how much that I gave you
But I promise, I would do it all again.

Just to be with you, I've done everything
There's no price I did not pay
Just to be with you, I gave everything
Yes, I gave my life away.
