Fifty Years from Now

Fifty Years from Now
Words & Music by John Mandeville, Steve Siler,& Bill Ebert

What do you do when the fire’s gone
and passion fades away
Just being together used to be enough
But now what?
How do we feel what we used to feel
Can we learn how to care
when it seems such a long way back from here to there
Right now it feels like it would be easier
To give up and give in, but

Fifty years from now
What will we remember?
Fifty years from now
What will we have to treasure?
If we walk away from this
What will we have missed?
Fifty years, Fifty years from now

Dance recitals and T- ball games
The simple joys of the day
Will we let the best of life
just pass us by
Graduations and wedding days
Grandkids up on our knees
Will we make a huge mistake or memories?
Do we just throw away what we started
Missing us, missing out

CHORUS

God gave us this love
We need to see it through
The moment’s ours
The choice is up to me and you

CHORUS

I Don't Know You Anymore

I Don’t Know You Anymore
Words & Music by Tony Wood & Steve Siler

female You’re working late, I do dinner, bath, and bedtime
We’ve still got bills to pay and clothes to clean
Male You’re fast asleep, so I nod off watching TV
There’s something getting lost in the routine
feamle There’s so much noise, that we don’t hear the silence
male Even when we’re together, we’re alone

I don’t know you anymore
I don’t recognize our love
We’ve let the distance grow
Can we fill the canyon up?
Where’s the flame that burned?
Where is my best friend?
Do strangers get a second chance to have what might have been
I don’t know you anymoref.

female Remember when we’d stay up all night talking?
A pair of careless dreamers making plans
Male I’d move the world to spend one moment with you
It was heaven just to hold your hand
We set a course to sail this sea together
female Tell me when did we drift so far apart

Repeat CHORUS
But I’d like to know you again

female We’ve let so much come between us
There’s so much work to do
But we don’t have to face it all alone
male  ‘Cause there’s a God that loves us
And He can pull us through somehow
both Even though, right now

Repeat CHORUS

Do strangers get a second chance to fall in love again
I don’t know you anymore
But I’d like to know you again

Top Ten Reasons Why Staying Married is Good For You

Love as I Have Been Loved

Love as I Have Been Loved
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne & Steve Siler

Your hurtful words wounded me deep
It seemed like you spoke them carelessly
I was disappointed but I kept it all inside
And then I got discouraged when you couldn’t read my mind

I shielded and hardened my heart
The closeness between us grew apart
Pride was my companion but now its turned to shame
And if we’re disconnected then I’ve got myself to blame
I have been behaving like a spoiled and selfish child
When I know the only way we can be reconciled
Is if I

Love as I have been loved
And show the mercy I’ve been shown
Give as I have received
Which is more than I deserve I know
I’ll pass on the gift of grace
Throwing judgment to the wind
To love as I’ve been loved
And forgive as I’ve been forgiven

I’ve said some things I didn’t mean
Coming back at you defensively
Trying to win a battle with the hurtful words I choose
But if the fight accelerates it’s both of us who lose
How this all got started doesn’t matter in the end
‘Cause if I say I’m sorry then the healing can begin
and I will

CHORUS

Jesus loves me with mercy
Jesus loves me with grace
And if I love you as I say I do
I need to get to the place where I can

CHORUS

Before God

Before God
Words & Music by John Mandeville & Steve Siler

He was there on that wonderful day
When you gazed into her eyes
and gave your heart away
He was there
He heard every single word
When you offered her your future
for all that it was worth
You promised that your heart would forever be true
Before her
Before God

He was there when she walked down the aisle
As graceful as an angel
You know he must’ve smiled
He was there when you took her by the hand
and he shared in your devotion
as you gave your wedding bands
Your lives were sealed together
When you spoke the words I do
Before her
Before God

Hard times have come like they always do
So what will you do now?
Will you hide behind your doubt
or try to talk it out
Trusting in the one who has given you this love

‘Cause He is there just like He’s always been
Reminding you you vowed to be her lover and her friend
and He’ll be there to be what you can’t be
With hope when things look hopeless
and strength when you feel weak
When you walk by faith
Love will never fail
If you’re standing on His word
with all you’ve got
Before her Before God

What God Has Joined Together

What God Has Joined Together
Words & Music by John Mandeville & Steve Siler

Here we are
Can you believe we’ve made it to this place
Hand in hand and face to face
Pledging our lives now and forever
To walk beside each other in the sun
To be a shelter when the storm clouds come
We’ve always dreamed of this
and no wish could be better
than what God has joined together

Twenty years
Can you believe how fast the kids have grown?
I’d have never found this joy alone
Think of all we’d have missed if ever
we’d have given up when times got tough
Even when our strength was not enough
We saw the power of prayer
was there when we remembered
What God has joined together

It was by design
that you and I should meet
He had us both in mind right from the start
The one who gave us life
knew just what we’d need
from the day that he made our two hearts

Fifty years
Can you believe how quickly time has flown?
Looking back at all the seeds we’ve sewn
and all the rocky seas we’ve weathered
I’m so glad I shared it all with you
Now we know God’s promise to be true
With our love in his hands
No act of man could sever
What God has joined together

This is what couples need to hear. We play it at our weekends and you should see the looks on their faces as they listen. It is very powerful. We’ even know of three couples who have used Fifty Years from Now when they renewed their vows!

Juanaita Thayer, Marriage Restored, LaFayette, IN

We’ve found that after hearing Fifty Years From Now it moves couples to a point of brokenness and a desire to reconcile hurts. A very gifted contribution.

Gary Rosberg, America's Family Coaches, Des Moines, IA

We’re always looking for resources that will bless the body of Christ. There were sixty couples at our last marriage retreat. We played Fifty Years From Now and sold all thirty copies. If we’d had sixty, we would’ve sold sixty.

Mike Phillips, University of the Family, Highlands Ranch, CO

My husband, who is a pastor, and I, were so moved by the music and the testimonials and we want to THANK YOU for this unique creation. We will be purchasing many copies.

Debbie Brownfield, Thousand Oaks Seventh Day Adventist Church, Thousand Oaks, CA

We received your excellent CD Fifty Years from Now and within two hours we were playing it in a counseling session. It was the right song and the timing was exquisite for them to hear those lyrics.

Michael Hanley, Marriage for Life, Point Lonsdale, Victoria, Australia
