I Will Love You Now

Story Behind The Song

I have been asked to sing this song at weddings, gatherings, and funerals, which means to me that people take it in very different ways. For that reason, I keep my intention secret, as it means so much to hear the stories that come out of this song. It has a versatility - it can be applied in so many situations, so I love that people have no idea that I actually wrote it about God.

Song Description

There is no such thing as being "worthy" of love. We are all worthy just by being, and although it may be difficult to accept at times, we must put aside our fears, reservations, and even egos and accept the love that's given to us by others before it's too late.

Lyrics

If I wait 'til I am sure
Or until my heart is pure
Then I will wait forever

If I wait 'til someone shows me
Or until I am all-knowing
Then I will wait forever

So I will love you now
Without all the answers
And you will love me now
Despite all my fears
You have held me close even when you were forsaken
So I will love you now

If I wait 'til I am whole
If I want complete control
Then I will wait forever

If I wait 'til I am perfect
Until I know that I am worth it
Then I will wait forever

So I will love you now
Without all the answers
And you will love me now
Despite all my fears
You have held me close even when you were forsaken
So I will love you now
Yes, I will love you now
