1

The early morning air is crisp

The sun rises as a wisp

I sit here alone, to no one's surprise

To disturb the quiet is unwise

I watch the people come and leave

But you are not one of them, I grieve

2

Even so, with or without you, I commit

Even so, for you and me, I submit

Even so, without the lord's help, I'm unfit

Even so I will commit

3

I look at you and something is different

My love and commitment to you are concurrent

I love you to the stars and back

I commit to you the stars and back

My love will show my commitment

And my commitment will build my love

4

Commitment is the foundation of love

To love and not commit is false

Commit your way to the lord

Trust in him and he will do this

He will make your righteous reward

Shine like the dawn,

5

I love you more,

than I have ever found a way to say to you

So I will let my commitment do the talking

I will let my soul do the knocking

I will let us do the walking

6

I have nothing to give but my commitment

I have nothing to show but my commitment

I have nothing to love but you

7

You may hate me

You may never love me

But I will commit to you

In the highest of valleys

I will commit to you

In the darkest of trenches

I will commit to you

Through anything this world throws at us

I will commit to you

As you chase the wrong men

I will commit to you

8

My love will show my commitment

And my commitment will build my love
