Before I Breathed
Eternal Love Unveiled: Joseph Crook's 'Before I Breathed' Essence
Lyrics
Before I breathed
Before I existed or had life
Your breath it filled my lungs
Your influence and essence were within me
Before I spoke
Before I communicated or expressed myself
You told me I was loved
You assured me of your affection
Before I dreamed
Prior to my aspirations or hopes
My life it was a dream inside Your heart
My existence was part of your vision or plan
You had me on Your mind before I did a thing
You were mindful of me before my actions
You had me on Your mind before I did a thing
Reiteration of being in your thoughts before my deeds
You are my first love
You hold the primary place in my affection
My only desire
You are my sole longing or wish
'Cause You were in love
You had love before my existence
Long before I was alive
Even before my birth, you already felt affection
When galaxies were silent in the night
In the ancient past when galaxies were quiet
And mountain peaks had yet to see Your sight
Before mountains saw your presence
When angels still had yet to sing glory
Before angels sang your praises
Still on that day You made a vow to marry me
On that particular day, a commitment to be united was made
Still on that day You made a vow to marry me
Reaffirmation of the vow made
You are my first love
You are the foremost affection in my life
My only desire
You are the singular longing in my heart
'Cause You were in love
Love existed within you before my birth
Long before I was alive
Your love preceded my existence
Before I knew
Prior to my realization
Your love could wash away my tears
Your affection had the power to comfort me
Before I tasted
Before I experienced anxiety or dread
Of a life without any fears
Before I knew tranquility that eased my being
Before I felt a peace that calmed my soul
Your declaration of possession and commitment
I heard You say you're mine and I will not let go
Reiteration of your claim and devotion
I heard You say you're mine and I will not let go
Reaffirmation of your claim and dedication
You are my first love
You hold the primary place in my affection
My only desire
You are my sole longing or wish
'Cause You were in love
You had love before my existence
Long before I was alive
Even before my birth, you already felt affection
