The area around Matsudo has been inhabited since prehistoric times, and archaeologists have found remains from the Jomon period, as well as burial tumuli from the Kofun period. During the Edo period, the area was tenryo controlled directly by the Tokugawa shogunate, and contained a number of horse ranches providing war horses for the Shogun’s armies. It also developed as a post station on the Mito Kaido connecting Edo with Mito. After the Meiji Restoration, Matsudo Town was created in Higashikatsushika District Chiba Prefecture in 1878. Matsudo attained city status on October 1, 1943.
Love is a blessing, Love is a vow
Love is the reason we're standing here now
The future before us, tomorrow's untold
But Love is the promise that whatever it holds
I will hold you, I will hold you up
I will hold you, I will hold you up
So give me your bad days, Give me your fear
Bring all your burdens, just lay them down here
Cause I'm not gonna leave you, when your world becomes a war
I'm staying in the trenches, cause you're worth fighting for
Cause I will hold you, I will hold you up
And I will hold you, I will hold you up
And I will hold you up in victory
Watch your light outshine the stars
And when you're breaking down and weary
Just be weary in my arms
There will be trials, There will be tests
As hard as I'm trying for you, I'm human at best
But baby don't worry, if you should start to fall
Just cling to the one Love that's bigger than us all
He will hold you, He will hold you up
I know that He will hold you, He will hold you, He will hold you up
