Marriage Partnership

Marriage between man and woman is an intimate union you see
that begins with an equal partnership with the man on his knees

With deepest joy you are asking someone to share your life
Knowing quite well in this journey there will be times of strife.

Happy is the man who discovers his true friend in life
is the same one he's about to marry to be his wife

A good marriage relationship begins with mutual respect 
Where a couple goes through life vowing to love and protect

Whenever one is wrong we need to be quick to admit 
In this relationship the one who is right needs to acquit

A good marriage is like a good casserole and has many parts
Those responsible keeping what goes in close to their hearts

No relationship comes with a guarantee for success
We need to learn to pray so we will do our very best

As time goes by we need to look upwards to the sky
A day will come we have to look our Father in the eye
