[Verse]
G D Am Em
I look into your eyes, And I see my Savior's love.
G D Am Em*
I open up my heart; Tell me what your thinking of.
G D Am Em
When I look at you, I see a love from two.
G D G* G*
The love of my best friend, and my living Lord.

[Chorus]
C D G* C
And then I ask, how could I refuse.
C D G* G*
To love one so beautiful as you.

[Verse]
G D Am Em
When I was a child, I thought in childish ways.
G D Am Em*
When I became a man, I put those ways a way.
G D Am Em
For now I know in part, but then I'll fully know,
G D G* G*
Both my Savior's love and your own.

[Chorus]
C D G* C
Now faith, hope and love abide these three.
C D G* G*
But the greatest of these is love.

[Bridge]
G D Am Em
This mystery's profound, referring to Christ and his Church.
G D G* G*
I long to love you as Christ loves His church.

[Chorus]
C D G* C
And may I love you for all my life.
C D G* G*
And make you my wife.
(keep)

[Verse]
G D Am Em
And soon the stars will fall and the Son of Man return.
G D Am Em*
The elect will be called from heaven and earth.
G D Am Em
And until that day will you love me always.
G D G* G*
My heart is here to stay, I love you each day.

[Chorus]
C D G* C
So will you marry me today
(hold)
C D G* G*
And be with me always.
