The One - Phat Chance.

My buddy Simon sent me the lyrics to this song and I was moved by it. I haven't seen the subject of purity in relationships expressed in music before. Purity is something that is dear to my heart because I've had to deal with instances in a past relationship where I wasn't pure at all and I was just dragging the both of us down in our relationship with God. I can't stress enough how important it is to not only have a pure relationship with someone, but also in the way that we think.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. [Philippians 4:8]

Unfortunately I don't have a copy of this song, but from the little snippet I heard, it sounded pretty good. Here goes:

I know I've never met you, but I know
Someday you'll be by my side
And we will share what the Lord's prepared,
And we'll have nothing to hide

I will never give myself away
I'll be right here waiting
Holding on for you

Wherever you are, under these stars
You know tonight I'm praying
For a love that's pure, you can be sure
That love is worth the waiting

You'll be the one sent from above
'Till then I'll be waiting, praying
Knowing that you are the one

I know I've never met you, but I know
You're a promise I can hold on to
We belong, so please be strong
I'm waiting for you, too
