"I Will Honor You" - from the album "My Greatest Need"
(Michael Tolf)
I need You
I need to know that You are by my side
You are my king
You give me life and cause my heart to sing
And throughout my endless days
I will give You praise
You are the light that shines
You are the passion of my life
And I will honor You - I will lift You up
You are the morning sun
You are a life that's just begun
And I will honor You
I want You
I want the power that only You can give
You are my strength
You've been the joy throughout my life at length
And throughout my endless days
I will give You praise
You are the light that shines
You are the passion of my life
And I will honor You - I will lift You up
You are the morning sun
You are a life that's just begun
And I will honor You
STORY BEHIND THE SONG
This is probably the best balad I've ever written. The opening chord (B2-6/A - for you musicians out there) is the key to the song. That chord was an "accident". One day while I was experimenting with chords I stumbled upon it. Sometimes an accident is a good thing - like me for instance. My folks always said I was one -right mom/dad??
