Love the Lord'

I love the Lord with all my heart,
He has been there for me, We have never been apart.
When times were tough fighting that Asian war,
He protected me throughout, leaving minimal scars'

He blessed me with children, my true legacy,
That will stay with me all my adult life, total ecstasy.
I've had my brushes with death, throughout,
The Lord has protected me always, that's no doubt

Now at 62, He has blessed me again'
With a Christian lady, she, along with Him, is my strength'
As we two move on too a life He's planned,
I grow strong with her, because of our Father, I finally understand.

Understand, that we can trust Him,
Never turning away from His light, given from within.
The lord is our strength, He is always looking in, an caring.
For myself and my lady, Our  love we will always be there with the caring.

Thank you Lord for your faith in us,
Because your fair, honest, and in you we will always trust.
Trusting you in all of our affairs,
Because you love the both of us, and you really do care.

Glad to see you are in a ggod place right now :) the missing rhyme in lines 9 & 10 makes the poem flow less well, still glad to have read it.
