Yesterday we drove all night to Pittsburgh   Jamie laid her head down in the back   My little boys asleep beside their sister   They’re the best I have      I brought an old recording of your father   He was teaching men and women how to love   He carried on about his sons and daughters   Growing up      As we drove across Ohio   At the dawning of the day   I could hear the tune of truth was in his voice   And it felt just like I knew him   Though I never saw his face   Maybe that’s because I know his boys   Who live their lives      For the love of God   In the name of Jesus   The groom who gave his life   To love his bride      I know you thought you’d never find a woman   I never thought I’d have to write this song   But here I am and there you are together   After all      You felt like you were buried   In a city underground   All broken bits and pieces of the past   And somewhere she was searching   On the surface of the mound   She was digging for a treasure that would last   Now she’s giving you her heart      For the love of God   In the name of Jesus   The groom who gave his life   To love his bride      Now, love is not a feeling in your chest   It is bending down to wash another’s feet   It is faithful when the sun is in the west   And in the east      It can hurt you as it holds you   In its overwhelming flood   Till only the unshakeable is left   “This new command I give you,” He said,   “Love as I have loved”   So brother, love her better than yourself   And give her your heart      For the love of God   In the name of Jesus   The groom who gave his life   To love his bride
