The Miracle of Love

How to explain how two become one?
How can it be so natural to share with someone?
The fears and barriers have all disappeared
And how simple to love when trust appears
Where will love lead us?
We know the future is ours.

In these past years we have grown wiser
We have become able and strong individuals
However the completeness of us together
Is far greater then the sum of each of us
And life takes on new meaning

Just as it takes the sun and rain to grow a tree
So it takes both of us to become the best we can be
Now comes the hardest test for you and me
We must wait for God to direct where we go
And strengthen our joining in ways we can't know

Through good times and bad
We must cherish what we have
For there are times when we will be sad
And time will drag by so slowly
Yet these are the times we will learn who we are

This gift of love will grow with the years
We must use it to overcome each others fears
The way that we honor it is through living
We have the choice how we choose to proceed
And if we keep going  we will succeed
