This Love
Mandi Mapes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Funny how you found you're way to my door
And suddenly my prayers are coming true
And these arms are not letting go of you
This love this love is the deep kind
You're my baby, you're my sunshine
I'll hold your hand, be your biggest fan
Our eyes are not quite the same shade
And your hair blows in the wind a different way
But I am your mother and
I love you just the same
So I'll take your hand honey
And you can take my name
My heart has been redeemed,
Adopted and now I know my Father
This grace that I've received
I want to show you
I want to show you
This love this love is the deep kind
It hangs on through the storm and the sunshine
I'll hold your hand, be your biggest fan
And I'll love you all of the time
The lyrics to Mandi Mapes's song This Love speaks of the overwhelming feeling of love and the commitment to never let go. The opening lines, "I've never felt this way before, Funny how you found your way to my door" conveys the initial surprise and wonder of finding someone who brings a different and deep sort of love. The lines, "And suddenly my prayers are coming true / And these arms are not letting go of you," suggest a fulfillment of a long-awaited desire for love and a determination to keep it.
The song goes on to describe the depth of love shared between two people, illustrated in the lines "This love, this love is the deep kind / You're my baby, you're my sunshine." The lyrics further emphasizes the promise to remain steadfast in love, to hold hands and support each other through different phases of life, "And I'll love you all of the time."
The latter part of the song takes a turn, speaking of a different kind of love – that of a parent to a child. The lines, "Our eyes are not quite the same shade / And your hair blows in the wind a different way / But I am your mother and I love you just the same" highlights the unadulterated love a parent has for their child, irrespective of their physical differences. It closes by referencing the redeeming power of love and the desire to share it, "This grace that I've received / I want to show you / I want to show you."

I see your smile
And it’s so much sweeter
After all that I’ve been through
And when we laugh
I get a glimpse of forever
And I praise God that I found you
And anytime someone asks me
How it all unfolded I tell them
Such incredible chances
Make for marvelous love
Just like the sun lights up the moon
This love is a reflection
Of more than just me and you
Our lives were less than ordinary
And while I couldn’t see past tomorrow
God was making history
Oh my, what a beautiful story of love
Unexpected mercy
Is the greatest thing to find
When you’ve been broken many times
My soul found joy
And for the first time in a while
I felt singing
And anytime someone asks me
How it all unfolded I tell them
Such incredible chances
Make for marvelous love
Just like the sun lights up the moon
This love is a reflection
Of more than just me and you
Our lives were less than ordinary
And while I couldn’t see past tomorrow
God was making history
Oh my, what a beautiful story of love
Oh my, what a beautiful story
Oh my, what a beautiful story
What a beautiful story of love

História de Amor
Vejo seu sorriso
E é muito mais doce
Depois de tudo que passei
E quando nós rimos
Eu tenho um vislumbre de sempre
E eu louvo a Deus por te encontrar
E sempre que alguém me pergunta
Como tudo se desenrolou, eu digo a eles
Essas incríveis chances
Fazem o amor maravilhoso
Assim como o sol ilumina a lua
Esse amor é um reflexo
De mais do que apenas eu e você
Nossas vidas eram menos que comuns
E enquanto eu não consegui ver além de amanhã
Deus estava fazendo história
Oh, que linda história de amor
Misericórdia inesperada
É a melhor coisa para encontrar
Quando você foi quebrado muitas vezes
Minha alma encontrou alegria
E pela primeira vez em quando
Eu me senti cantando
E sempre que alguém me pergunta
Como tudo se desenrolou, eu digo a eles
Essas incríveis chances
Fazem o amor maravilhoso
Assim como o sol ilumina a lua
Esse amor é um reflexo
De mais do que apenas eu e você
Nossas vidas eram menos que comuns
E enquanto eu não consegui ver além de amanhã
Deus estava fazendo história
Oh, que linda história de amor
Oh, que história linda
Oh, que história linda
Que linda história de amor
