FAMILY LOVE

Marked well with awesome affectionate care Family love makes me smile with thanks' bliss Designed by the Lord for us all to share Exposing joy, each member should not miss. Family love makes me smile with thanks' bliss Along fervent heart exuded by glad face Exposing joy, each member should not miss While in the pink of health, beaming with grace. Along fervent heart exuded by glad face Golden rings radiate covenant ties While in the pink of health, beaming with grace Mom and Dad hold hands; and we do likewise. Golden rings radiate covenant ties Yellow bells show anniversary-glow Mom and Dad hold hands; and we do likewise Since we their children --- their love story, know. Yellow bells show anniversary-glow With sweet peace from family paradise Since we their children ---their love story, know Parents’ partnership so true, sans guise. With sweet peace from family paradise Home’s warmth oozes midst compassion wonders Parents’ partnership so true, sans guise Makes me smile indeed amidst pain's blunders. Home’s warmth oozes midst compassion wonders Designed by the Lord* for us all to share Makes me smile indeed amidst pain's blunders Marked well with awesome affectionate care.
