The Union

"The Union" 

You lift me up when I have no strength
When I feel things are too rough
Today tomorrow and forever you go the extra length
Because of you I've been given a chance to be tough
In your arms you show me true love 
As a symbol of security you've become my dove
You've taught me in all things we will cling to hope 
The reason I don't need to get scared when I feel I'm at the end of my rope
In the moments I feel things aren't fair or just
You've taught me to believe in the two of us I must
It's protection and security when we are joined together
That things go from heavy as a rock to light as a feather
You're there through the worst the unsure and the best
And united together we are a force that stands every test
Through every minute hour and second that time seems to stand still and freeze
You make the whispers of the wind give a refreshing calm breeze
I find myself assured that with you as we hold hands we are one like a strong lock
 Your love I know has been my rock
I know time no longer stands still as we become united together as one 
As God our heavenly Father says my children my work has been done 
Joining hand in hand two hearts become one and I proudly say our lives have begun
The race to the finish line we are determined to run 
As the world meets for the first time Mr. and Mrs. McGee
I'm humbled to say that lucky bride will be me 
We will take this world by storm through the example of faith we walk
Through honest communication we glide like the beauty of a hawk 
It's a privilege and a gift to know that you're going to be my husband 
But you're more than just that you're my inspiration 
And as we exchange vows that we've had since our first day together we promise
To be all that each other needs, wants, and ever could dream or imagine
Thanks to hard work discipline and remaining determined 
As our prayers were heard and answered the Lord said we were forever destined 
In honor of all he had in mind for us we will be strong and evolve to make our future ours for the making 
In awe of everything yet to come I promise to give you all I have and all that I am 
Before you God and our family we stand, joined hand in hand 
Celebrating our union today tomorrow and for eternity
Congratulations to husband and wife, we are presented with a bonding kiss
 Mr. and Mrs. John McGee 

I love you John McGee
