New covenant

A radical departure from the emotionally charged esoteric musings I usually post here.
This is a song I've written for a friends wedding.

----     --------     ----------       --------     ---   ---------- ------- - --- -----

Twenty some years daughter, and here we are.
I'd always knew this day would come.
You found him at last and now you are off to build a new kingdom with him.

Oh take in the scene.
Ah taste the bittersweet.

But oh would you believe it? There they go!
And oh where life takes them no one knows.
Fear for their future, oh I would if I didn't know that all God's plans are good.

Twenty some years my oldest son.
And look at the man that you have become.
And where are the days we'd hike the great heights?
Son this is so surreal.  But it's still real.  There she is, there you are.

Oh take in the scene.
Ah taste the bittersweet.
The bittersweet joy of unity.

And oh would you believe it, there they go!
And oh where life takes them, no one knows.
Fear for the future, all mothers do, but I trust that all of God's words are true.

And oh would you believe it, there they go!
And oh where life takes them, no one knows.
Fear for the future, a father should, but I know that all of our God's plans are good.
