The love which drew us close and made us one
Shall last as long as earth, drawn by the sun,
Pursues its endless course among the spheres,
Undaunted by the passing of the years.
And as the moon unceasing turns its face
To gaze upon fair earth's effulgent grace,
E'en so my heart is turned to yours alone
And casts its light to bid your darkness gone.
As seasons change, our lives inconstant stream -
Spring's hopes give way to summer's fleeting dream,
The autumn's leaves with vivid colours glow,
And winter has the beauty of the snow.
Though many things in life may bring us pain
The many more shall yield us joy again,
And passing time shall prove these things are true:
God's grace, companion hearts, my love for you.
