One Day in Early Spring - Christian Celtic Music

Celtic-style tune. Easter / spring song. This song tells a story. I love those sappy, melancholy Celtic songs about unrequited love and people dying for unrequited love. I wanted to write one with a bit of a twist. (Hint: John 3:16, "For God so loved the world...")
Lyrics:
One day in early spring
As clouds rolled 'cross the sky,
Oh, there was not a bird to sing
For my true love and I.

Only of my true love I thought
As I walked that weary road.
In my two hands, my love I brought.
'Twas such a heavy load.

For true love can't bear the name
If it be only true
When it be given back the same,
For true loves be but few.

So I call her my true love still,
For I am true to her.
My love is nothing she can kill
Though dead she would I were.

And dead I soon will be.
As I climb this lonely hill,
I go for all The World to see
That She's my true love still.
That you're my true love still.

My love in my two hands
I carried all the way.
Then I stretched them out to all the lands
And died for them that day.
I died that one spring day.

deeply touching...i had a dream, actually more a vision, so real i woke crying ...Yahushuah was singing a Celtic type song to me...i was not even into that type music at time...had never even thought of YAH singing...EVER!...it was the most loving personal thing i ever heard ,in the song he sung of the isle of avalon, i went and looked avalon up in my dictonary and what i read made me weep some more,,YAH is so personal ,that looks like church in b.c. where my friend david and megan got married.

Thank you for all the kind comments. My church is in B.C. I don't know a couple by the names of David and Megan, but it's possible they were just married in the church and don't attend regularly.

Glad to know these songs are being used by God to reveal a little more of His heart. That's the experience of mine that they grew out of. Hope He'll use your music in the same way.

I've been listening to these songs of yours. They are beautiful. It's so refreshing to me to see people using their talents for the Lord! Anyway, is that Scotland in the clip?

[cslcojoco]

Not Scotland. Canada, the area where I live. I visited Scotland for the first time in 2008. I was amazed at how similar my home area is to where I was in Scotland.

Lovely ... and yeah, quite the twist on the love song theme. He paid it all for a world that does not want to quickly to reconcile.

[MoijiBlues]

Nice sound = )

[seats19]
