Marriage - Sacred
By
LinnieJane Burks
My Beloved, My Life, My Own!
Long have I foresaw,
planned yea, even prayed that God
in wisdom and gracious love might
grant me this.
My Beloved, My Life, My Own!
How little others knew of the warm
and tender beating of my heart--
love's tempo--when thoughts of
you were winging thru' my mind!
My Beloved, My Life, My Own!
Can it be true? My fondest dream a dear
reality? The object of my years of adoration
mine? Can it be true?
My Beloved, My Life, My Own!
True? yes! True now and forever
more. I know it as I hear you
speak, "I love you, my wife."
