The Song

Just this week we watched “The Song” movie, an American romantic drama film in 2014. The film was inspired by the book Song of Songs and Solomon’s Life. The story is about Jed King; a struggling musician and son of successful country music legend, David King. 

At a festival, he met Rose, the daughter of a vineyard owner. He fell in love, married her, and wrote a song about her wife. This song became an instrument to his stardom but because of his fame, it affected his marriage and life choices. 

I like this song, it can be a wedding song too. 

The Song (Awaken Love) by Alan Powell 

I'd been waiting on you to come along 

Seeing notes on a page but not the song 

Had a hole in my heart and a pain so strong 

Only a woman like you could take me on 

There's a plan for us, a hand divine 

The waiting was worth it now you're my wife 

We've been taking our time and doing this right 

But tonight I'm not gonna just kiss you good night 

You, the song my heart sings 

Awake love I want you to know we're making love 

Deeper than our bodies you are written on my soul 

 You're eyes like the dawn you are beauty 

The touch of your skin consumes me 

You shine like the sun pure and lovely 

Set me as a seal upon your heart 

O love stronger than death 

Flashes of fire with purest desire 

No waters will get quench 

Awaken love awaken love 

No riches or power appeal 

All will find they are truly alive 

In Love as it was meant to be 

This is love as it was meant to be

Love is the power that heals 

Love is the power that heals
