My Sweetheart, my True Love,
today is the day
we will stand before God, by His grace.
I will promise to love you
'till death do us part,
as we stand heart-to-heart, face-to-face.
All my life I have waited
for this special day --
for the one whom my soul yearned to love;
For my answer to prayer,
the "One" given to me
from the heart of the Father above.
The years I have wasted
in wandering afar
are dim memories since I found You,
As cold snow that melts swiftly
and soon disappears
when the Son's warming brilliance
breaks through.
Soon our lives will entwine
as we promise to walk
from this day forth, always - together.
With the light of our love
and the joy of our Lord,
we'll walk the bright path to forever.
And lest we should forget,
there's a dear little girl
who's been sent by our Father's own plan
To add giggles, delight,
and a warm, trusting heart
to our family, blessed by His hand!
As we pledge sacred vows
of commitment and love
in the hush of this glorious time,
We'll rejoice in the splendor
of what God has wrought
and the excellence of His design!
