Verse 1
A young man left his homeland on a search so grand and far
A mission of compassion, a journey of the heart.
Looking for the treasure that would make his love complete.
Then at last he found her down a dark, deserted street.
Verse 2
Her eyes were sad and empty, her face had lost it's glow.
Her spirit tired and needy, for sin was all she'd known.
Lying in the gutter, she could not understand
Why he was kneeling down beside her, holding out a nail-scarred hand.
And he said...
Chorus
Will you marry me? Will you be my bride?
Will you marry me? I can change your life.
I have looked beyond your failures and I see you washed
As white as white can be.
So I ask, will you marry me?
Bridge
We were the woman lying in the street
A prisoner of the gutter with no chance to ever leave.
But now we are the bride of Christ, the redeemed from the fall.
Not because we've earned the right, but we've answered the call.
The call when He says....
Chorus
Will you marry me? Will you be my bride?
Will you marry me? Let me change your life.
I have looked beyond your failures and I see you washed
As white as white can be.
So I ask, will you marry me?
I have looked beyond your failures
And I see you washed as white as white can be.
So I ask, will you marry me?
