50 Years Ago
Dear Mom and Dad
Our family is full of joy today
You’re celebrating 50 years together
The four of us just want to say
We thank you every day for helping us
Survive each sun and stormy weather
You’ve always given us a helping hand
With comfort or advice, you’ve always been there
For us, and never thought about it twice
Through thick and thin you’ve shared with us
Your experiences and wisdom, though we might
Not have understood or sometimes made a fuss
Today and always we must confess our love and devotion
Dear lord, we thank you for this day
And all the blessings you bestow
Upon this couple who were wed 50 years ago
Thank you Mom and Dad for this existence
We thank you here and now for your protection
We love you more than you will ever know
And will always thrive with your affection.
