💕💕As we saw in Lovebirds’ Devotional of April 20, 2026, King Solomon composed one thousand and five songs. Of this large repertoire of melodies, only one is named “The Song of Songs,” meaning it is the chiefest of the 1,005 songs! Is this not an indication that love songs belong to the upper crust of the universal collection of human music?
This should not surprise us, because Love is the greatest force in the universe, and romantic love is the power that perpetuates the human race. However, our focus in this final part of our teaching on “The Power of Love Songs” is to draw your attention to the fact that both husband and wife are to be involved in the work of using their musical and other talents to build up their marriage, keeping their romance lush and evergreen.
🎙️🎙️THE LADY OF LOVE
In the Song of Solomon, the lady sang for the man and the man also sang for her. So should it be in your marriage. As a matter of fact, the woman in the Song of Solomon began the singing, as we can see from the second verse of chapter one: “Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine” (Song of Solomon 1:2).
📀💿MALE AND FEMALE CREATED HE THEM, AND BOTH SHOULD CREATE LOVE SONGS!
When you look at the world of secular music, both male and female musicians have been known to sing love songs.
Growing up as a young boy in the 1960s, I heard a number of love songs by foreign artists. In their ignorance, people referred to those songs as “sentimental music.” One thing characterized those hits: they were melodious, meaningful, and had a way of touching the heart. It did not matter if the composer was male or female; the message and its rich melody won the day.
🎞️📽️BEYOND THE MELODY
In the context of a Christian marriage, a love song is more than just a pleasant arrangement of notes; it is a form of emotional stewardship. When a wife sings to her husband or a husband composes a heartfelt message for his wife, they are mirroring the divine affection Christ has for His Church. This “musical” atmosphere creates a sanctuary within the home, a place where the harshness of the world is shut out and the tenderness of the Spirit is invited in. Do not wait for a special occasion or a professional recording to find your voice; the most powerful love songs are often those whispered in the quiet moments of daily life.
🎨🖌️WALKING IN THEIR FOOTSTEPS
In engaging Love Songs as instruments for building your marriage, you should walk in the footsteps of the couple in the Song of Solomon. Those spouses were bold and audacious in their love songs. They unabashedly sang about each other’s bodily parts. The man sang about his lady’s luscious breasts (Song 4:5;7:3), her beautiful thighs(Song 7:1). The lady sang about her man’s lovely cheeks (Song 5:13), his handsome lips (Song 5:13), his mouth that’s “most sweet”(5:16). So also are you free to sing about each other’s body.
🎵🎸HEART SONGS AND MELODIES
Husbands should sing, write poems, essays about their wives bumbum, breasts, thighs, etc. And wives should do the same: sing, write poems, romantic essays about their husbands lips, arms, penis, etc. Of course, most of the time you’ll have to sing these songs silently in your heart because of their private nature.
When you sing about your spouse’s body again and again, three things take place. Firstly, you’re drawn to them. Secondly, your heart will esteem them as the very, very best. And finally, you’ll be repulsed by the body of other women/men! So get singing! Sing love songs. Sweeten your marriage with lovesongs everyday.

Think of your wife. Relieve her of every weight so she could once again be the vivacious honeymoon girl that she was at the beginning of your marriage.”(Anselm Ahman.
