True love is never ending.
All the Years
By Franklin Price

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
