E
Standing at the altar
C#m
With his bride to be beside
A
Through the stained glass window
B7sus4
Came down a beam of light
E
The weight of the commitment
C#m
Poured over him with fear
A
Like ice cream in a filling
B7sus4
Now the future's finally here
C# C#sus4
His soul had been replenished
F#m F#7sus4 F#m
By the words the vicar read
C# C#sus4
The organist dissected
Bm Bsus4 Bm
All the pieces she'd been fed
A B E
O--pen your hands
C#m
Where once was a steeple

O-pen your heart
Ammaj7 Am6
To this celebration
E
The choir pitched in early
C#m
As his heart began to rip
A
His anxiety was swollen
B7sus4
With the quiver of a lip
E
He looked around the chapel
C#m
Seeing everybody there
A B7sus4
He slowly fell to pieces and was only too aware
C# C#sus4
The vows were something special
F#m F#7sus4
So much deeper than he'd thought
C# C#sus4
Commitment bound in footsteps
Bm B7sus4 Bm
That would be a lifelong walk
A B E
O--pen your hands

Proud to see their Father

She had offered amnesty for a multitude of sins

Through the stained glass window her love shone down on him
