How can I love when I'm afraid to fall

"Thousand Years" by Christina Perri has been playing on my computer all day.  I love the song and can't wait to be able to have this in my head as I walk down the aisle to my husband...whoever that is.  She wrote the song specifically for the Twilight Saga "Breaking Dawn" and it fit perfectly.  I can also picture God singing this in Heaven to us and just waiting for us to come to Him.  He has loved us since before we were born and for a thousand more years even after we die.  He never fails to love me in my darkest times and in my brightest times.  No matter how many times I run or walk away because of what has happened in my life and I think I can do it on my own, He is waiting there for me with open arms.  Below I have shared the lyrics for your enjoyment.

Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I'm afraid to fall
Watching you stand alone
All of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

[Chorus:]
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more

And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more
