    Story Behind the Song
    This song was the result of our musings about
    worship songs. We wanted to write one that was different, but inspiring. We took our inspiration from the Celtic tradition, where every small daily event is turned into worship. And as a result, rather than using "churchy" vocabulary, we took everyday events
    as the text for our love song to God.

    Lyrics
    Like the fountain in a garden,
    Like a candle in the dark,
    Like the treasure in a bank vault,
    Like the gardener in a park,
    These things, You are to me.
    My God, You are to me.

    Like the incense in a burner,
    Like the lover to his wife,
    Like the pool within a desert,
    Like the medicine saves a life,
    These things, You are to me.
    My God, You are to me.

    Like the wall around an orchard,
    Like the pilot to a plane,
    Like the music in a love song,
    Like the life within the vein,
    These things, You are to me.
    My God, You are to me.

    Like the diamond in its setting,
    Like the wineglass at a meal,
    Like the light within the lantern,
    Like the fruit within the peel,
    These things, You are to me.
    My God, You are to me.

    Like the sunshine in the Heavens,
    Like the face within the glass,
    Like the sparkle in a snowflake,
    Like the dew upon the grass,
    These things, You are to me.
    My God, You are to me.

    Like the guardian to an orphan,
    Like the hearth within our homes,
    Like the map to a lost walker,
    Like the perfume in a rose,
    These things, You are to me.
    My God, You are to me.
