Deep
Bags packed, emotions high, vows said I do
Commenced on marvelous honeymoon day
My love now owned my life, isn't it true
Vows made to him, promised never to stray
Commitment to follow where he would go
In my heart, God also knew, my love grew
Husband dear, mate for life, my earthly beau.
Jesus my Redeemer, who brought my breakthrough
My eternal love, I'll follow in spirit.
Earthly love whose spiced scent I follow
Whose right arm has lifted me when near it
Can't go with me or I him through the hollow
Those vows exchanged until death do us part
In our future life, we'll have a perfect heart

We'll soon celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary. Both have bodies that are falling apart, but our inner spirit is being renewed within our hearts.
