Sweet Jesus

Sweet Jesus
I call on you for guidance
So we may follow in your footsteps
Every hour of every day

I’ve chosen a man
To love for the rest of my life
He has chosen me to be his wife
And, Lord

We have such faith in our hearts
And such desire to be truly loving
We ask you please to watch over us
And light the way should we ever stray
