You and I



Have you ever tried listening to the words of a pop song, and reframing it so that the love that is written about there is between you and our God? It makes the song even more beautiful. Here's one that has played on in my head. It speaks of our journey with the Lord. If you are age forty and up, you might recognize it - it's from "Goodbye Mr. Chips" and sung by Petula Clark in the movie..

You and I will travel far together
We'll pursue our little star together
We'll be happy as we are together
We may never get to heaven
But it's heaven, at least to try

You and I are going on together
'Til the time we have is gone together
Watch the evening drawing on together
Growing older, growing closer
Making memories that light the sky
That only time can make
That only love can make
That only we can make
You and I

You and I are going on together
'Til the time we have is gone together
Watch the evening drawing on together
Growing older, growing closer
Making memories that light the sky
That only time can make
That only love can make
That only we can make
You and I
You and I
You and I ...
