Father, I love you a lot, and I know that the only way I can love Michaela like I do
is because you give me enough to share.
So thank you for that, and I'm thankful for you introducing me to somebody that I want
to spend forever with, and I ask that you don't let me get in the way.
We're at the start, feet on fire now
And I can't say what loss I've had, but I don't care, since I'm time
Allow me to care for her and to love her the way that you would have me do that
and I asked for forgiveness already because I know I'm going to mess up a lot
I want you to know that I care about her a lot when I start doing stuff
and I start treating her the way that she doesn't deserve to be treated
that you remind me the way that you love me
so that I can share that with her.
She makes it easy, but just be with us.
It made me believe it was not easy what I could see
We'll make it on love, it shows so lovely
There is only now
I promise to love you, respect you, challenge you, and support you
I promise to be honest with you, to encourage you, and to laugh and cry with you
I promise to speak to you and about you with kindness and compassion
and I promise to love myself as much as I love you and not expect you to complete me
and above all, I promise to be your teammate in the kingdom and in life
and I promise to change when our marriage leads me to change and to grow
when it leads me to grow
I, Jaren, take you, Michaela, to be my lawfully wedded wife
I promise to keep my pride in check so I can keep learning new things
both from you and about you
I promise to be honest with you and speak the truth in love no matter how difficult
I promise to think less of your shortcomings as few as they may be
so that I can think more of your accomplishments and all around me
I promise to treat you like the daughter of the king that you are, a real life princess
and I promise to walk with you as we both learn what it means to live with our Lord and Savior
Oh, my mind is made up
Oh, it's time you wake up
Oh, my only option is you
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
