By My side
Thomas Porter

Sung on this track by the ORANGE cantor.

Text:
Stand by my side,
Offer your hand as I am off’ring you:
To have and to hold.

Together we’ll grow into the image of the Father,
Reflecting love in one another.
For on this day and for all time I choose you.

With faith as our guide and hope in our eyes
We share these words today.
The promises made will strengthen us on our way.

The journey that’s beginning is built on love
That has no end with God in our lives
And you, standing by my side.
