Only You—A Love Song For Him
Mar 24
by Victoria Robinson
The 1954 classic song, Only You, performed by The Platters certainly has a lot of scriptural truth in it, though maybe not what the writer intended. While this song speaks of a man who loves a woman, the words perfectly characterize the way we should love our Lord. Let us look at these words as a love song to Him, our—Only You!
Only you can make this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do and fill my heart with love for only you
Only you can make this change in me for it’s true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You’re my dream come true my one and only you
One and only you
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do and fill my heart with love for only you
Only you can make this change in me for it’s true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You’re my dream come true my one and only you
One and only you
— The Platters 1954

Song of Songs is a book written in the form of a lyrical love song. Within this romantic poetry we see such beautiful thoughts as, “Many waters cannot quench love …” In many ways the sentiments found in this book are a reflection of the love our heavenly Father has for us. His love can never be quenched. A comforting thought knowing we have the security of never being abandoned by the one who loves us more than anyone else ever could, after all, God is love.
A love that cannot be quenched is trustworthy. The love of our heavenly Father is the most wonderful love we all desire. His love for us stands eternal. Dearest girlfriends, as we celebrate this Valentine’s Day let us have a heart of thankfulness for the secure and everlasting love our heavenly Father so graciously lavishes on us.
Set me as a seal upon your heart, As a seal upon your arm; For love is as strong as death, Jealousy as cruel as the grave; Its flames are flames of fire, A most vehement flame. Many waters cannot quench love, Nor can the floods drown it. If a man would give for love All the wealth of his house, It would be utterly despised. ~ Song of Songs 8:6-7 NKJV
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence … ~ 1 John 4:16-17 NIV
The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness. ~ Jeremiah 31:3 NIV
