This composition was written for a wedding celebration between two dear friends.
The original text from Proverbs is beautiful. In this setting, the lyrics "we found you" refer to how God moved through the husband to lead him to the wife, that in a way they found her together. Apart from God the man would not have found such a wonderful person.
This song is recorded as the final track on the debut album from the Spark+Echo Band.
