In Your Hand My Confidence Lies

I’ve tasted disappointment 
And given up a time or two,
But I left that girl in another world,
When I fell in love with you.

Though the path ahead looks rocky,
No doubt I’ll ache for you each day.
My love will never falter,
Your ‘forever’ I'll always stay.

Granted we have made some mistakes,
But our resilience we will prove.
We’ll show them what our faith means,
Then from my nook I’ll never move.

With your heart you hold my trust,
In your hand my confidence lies.
With your lips you guard the secret to 
Love no trial could disguise.
