Beneath Star Swept Sky
Beneath star swept sky,
My darling and I
Held hands in the breeze
of the night
We were still in our teens
Dreams played out
hope's scenes
And we held to the
future so bright
Love pulled like a rope
Then I said, like a dope
"You are like a Greek god
to me!"
He sighed in my ear
"No way my sweet dear!
In Jesus, my God is my hope!"
His faith was so deep
In God's grace was steeped
And his faith brought my heart
such great joy
A vow and a ring,
a hallowed thing
And a King Who would
always us keep
The babies came 'long
Into our blessed song
And the years turned to
decades So fast
But my hearts in a whirl
As it was as a girl
In Grandpa's sweet arms
Gram' belongs
Our stories been told
Though young, we're quite old
My precious sweet boy
and his bride
As we stand 'neath the
stars with the hope
that is ours
In memories steeped
side by side
