True love is never ending.

All the Years By Franklin Price 03/29/2022 Thank you God for all the years That you gave my wife and me For an everlasting love That I thought could never be For debates we often had We were never keeping score Which one loved the other most All the time you loved us more You guided us throughout our lives Fifty years we spent together Through sunlight and through darkness Fair skies and stormy weather You never left us by the road Of the life we chose to trod Even when we sometimes wavered You were with us, thank you God When illness overtook her You gave me strength to give her care My love for her grew stronger Knowing you were always there. When You lifted her to Heaven To end her suffering on Earth I bowed my head in sorrow Questioning, what was it worth? You wrapped his arms around me Pulled me in to show you cared “ Her loving spirit is still with you, Think of all the years you shared” God still is walking with me Every day he's by my side To steer me in the right direction Until the ending of my ride Then we'll meet again in Heaven Hand in hand, my wife and me Walking on the streets of glory Where we'll spend eternity
