Tears of Joy
To the church on time I made it,
though down the aisle I almost fainted.
With tears of joy, we stood at the altar--
our wedding vows we did not falter.
Through love expressed,
a son we were blessed.
With tears of joy, I held him in my arms,
praying he would never be harmed.
Through God's grace,
we three are saved.
With tears of joy, we will meet again,
when to heaven we ascend.
