You have captured my heart (song series)


In light of Valentines day I am going to post a song written specifically for our wedding day.  I can’t believe it will be nine years in August that we have been in wedded bliss!  What blessings have fallen on us during these last several years and I have to admit each year gets richer.  We have been through rough moments and many moments of laughter. No one can get me to laugh like Will!

So before our wedding I wrote this song.  I asked Will to write what he would like to say to me in the song and I worded it to fit.  I tried not to embellish too much. Don’t worry I had him check my work before I made him sing his part…just to make sure he meant every word.  I think he had no choice but to agree.  We wanted the song sung at the ceremony but knew neither of us could possibly get through the song live without breaking so we recorded it.  This was the recording we played at the wedding.  I had the joy of singing with my husband and it brings me back to our early days and challenges me now as I recite the words and ask myself..."have I followed through?"

We have grown so much in our marriage and I am so grateful for every moment…good and bad.  The challenges drew us closer both to each other and to the Lord. 




Will, I am so thankful for you. You are my best friend. I love you dearly and deeply and as long as God gives us breath you will remain my one true love…you have Captured my heart!

You have captured my heart
Becki J Buescher

I will lead you the best I know how
Be patient my love as God works with my heart
I ‘ll protect you as He gives strength and
make you feel beautiful, Becki, your worth so much to me
I’ll stand in a crowd for you and give you all I have
May I spend everyday proving my love to you.

You’re the one I’ve always waited for
Before there was time your heart was meant for mine
I will love you forever, no matter what the days may bring
I’ll stay by your side and Laugh with you, Pray with you, 
Sing with you, Cry with you, Dream with you
Until Jesus call you home I promise from this day on
You have captured my heart


I’ll be your sunshine on a cloudy day
Follow you hard as God shows us the way
To love you, support you, trust you, adore you
Will, I am your biggest fan
And when you need a shoulder
I’ll be there to pray the burdens away
May I help you be the man God meant you to be

With God by our side with all our hopes and our fears
We’ll give Him all our moments and praise
And each time we may fall, just know that
I’ll always be on my knees for you
