Notes About The Poem

With Love

I’ve known him most of my life
Loved him through the best and worst of it
He’s given my heart a feeling of hope
He’s colored my thoughts in wonder, a song
Lyrics of kindness found with a soul
Who knows you like no one has known you before
And loves you despite all the darkness
With a love that seems like a light to you

He has been my friend, my inspiration, my dream
He’s encouraged my soul, my wishes, my fantasies
He’s made me feel more worthy than I could believe
He’s silenced my worries and helped me find peace
He’s my wildest passion, my desire, my feelings, deep
He has been my husband, my gift from God’s breath
The one who I will treasure – through this life,
And in heaven, when our time here is finished 
 	… when our hearts know that our faith is complete!

For every moment that I spent without him,
There is a priceless image of sharing his company
Knowing the meaning, finally…
	Of forever giving, living, loving
		The one God gave you to cherish
			Until the end of time!

With him, my smile is alive
With him, joy is stirred, inspired
By the music of a love that knows no uncertainty
But only the promise of good that is to come –
Because we’re centered in our love for Jesus, our Savior!
