The Pretty Girl and the Knight

Pretty Girl is what he's called me
From almost the first day we met
My knight is shining armor , he was
He still is, til this day yet!

We've been through the valley's
Been on the mountain top high
Watched our children become fine men
And we know the reason why

Through sickness and health
Through poverty and wealth
Our Lord has always provided
 
In all of these years
Through happiness and tears
Our Lord has dispelled all our fears

As we grow old together
We can face any kind of weather
Because of His mercy, love, and grace
We can together run this race!
