Love Song for Olivia

I wrote this song for Olivia on our fifth anniversary…based on 1 Corinthians 13!

Love You Like This
Written by Ben Ward

I’m gonna love you with some patience
I’m gonna love you with some kindness
I’m gonna love you with forgiveness
I’m gonna love you with some gentleness

I’m gonna love you when it’s easy
I’m gonna love you when it hurts so much
I’m gonna love you when it’s crazy
I’m gonna love you when I feel your touch

And if you ever need protecting
And if you need a place to rest

(Chorus)
Hold on, don’t let go
Stay right here, let me show you
You’re the reason I exist
Trust me and take my hand
Love never fails it makes no demands
I’m gonna love you, I’m gonna love you like this

I’m gonna love and not get offended
I’m gonna love you if we have some differences
And if you ever need defending
I’m gonna love you with a shield of faithfulness

When you need some understanding
When you need a place to rest

(Chorus)

If you ever need defending
When you need that place to rest

(Chorus)

Become Us (A Wedding Song)
By Ben Ward

Hold my hand and hold my heart
Hold my gaze till death we part
We are home

Take my love and take my life
Take my hand I’m yours You’re mine
We’re not alone

CHORUS
You and me in this mystery of love
Become us

Give your one and I’ll give mine
Give our all and we will find
We’re joined as one

CHORUS

All these solitary moments
Are just a chance for us to see
The beauty of our life together
And oh wonderful it can be
And oh how wonderful it will be

Hear my prayer and hear my dreams
My desires, my wants, my needs
All my love

CHORUS

Freely

Found this in a notebook…love the simplicity of it! Thanks to Shaun Stols for production support and Stephanie for singing!

Freely
Written by Ben Ward

All my love is Yours
Every piece, every part
Every inch unfurled
All my heart I give
All the light, all the dark
All the life I live

CHORUS
I don’t understand
How You love me
I could not have planned
Something so lovely
As the beauty that I see
Changing every part of me
So I give You my love freely

All my fear is Yours
Every scare, every nerve
My uneven scores
All my doubts I give
So unsure, unconvinced
All my waves in the wind

CHORUS
