Love That Lasts
Abiding love is a gift from above
bestowing favor to one special love
caring, committed and being kind
doing the hard thing, sacrifice in mind
enjoying one another’s company
forever grateful for you and me
going the distance to the very end
having and being each other’s best friend
interests shared, and taking the time
just to listen to your thoughts and mine
kinship that develops over the years
loving the good times, sharing the tears
may be moments that cause great strife
no matter how hard, we’ll make it right
over the years, we seek help from the Lord
purposeful prayer, to trust Him more
questions may go unanswered, but we
rest in His promises and let them be
so now we’ll continue to sojourn as one
trusting His care and trusting the Son
undying love, with a strong bond we share
venturing forward, and being aware
wanting to please, and letting it show
xenial ways bring pleasure that grows
youthful exuberance, breaking the mold
zest for living, together, as we grow old.
