Man and Wife
A match made in heaven and tempered by life.
A true story of success for a man and his wife.
Through life's trials and temptations they struggled to find
the true meaning of life and to gain peace of mind.
Through hardship and heartache their story does flow.
To a cross on Mount Calvary where all good hearts go.
And here their life's story does take a new turn;
for to follow Christ Jesus a new way you must learn.
Now their days are spent helping to show others the way.
To that cross on Mount Calvary there their burdens to lay.
Where a new life is waiting for all who will pray;
Dear Father forgive me and save me today.
(inspired by Carol Brown's comment on family---thank-you Carol)
