A Reason to Celebrate


Four years ago today I was privileged to marry David Spivey. We have been through difficult times and wonderful times. He has been my rock and my hero. Today I want to first of all thank God for giving me this precious gift, and second thank my wonderful man for the unconditional love and unending patience he has shown me over the past four years. I can't figure out how to play my own music on this blog so I'll write the words out to "our song".
One day, far away, you gently won my heart
And one night, by candlelight, we made a vow to never part
And then it seemed just like a dream
When wide eyed, side by side
We faced the future holding hands
Years fly, they hurry by, the simple times are gone
Bills due, a kid or two, a week can feel eight days long
By fading light, let's kiss goodnight
And then we trace God's daily grace
Thankful we're still holding hands
There's a hope that won't let go
There's a truth we know
God is holding us
In His arms
Thoughts stray far away to all that lies ahead
In frail days when strength fades
Will we still mean all that we said?
Our love's secure, so rest assured
Come what may 'til that day
We'll walk forever holding hands
By God's grace 'til that day
We'll walk forever holding hands

My hubby and I are just starting out...we hope that 7, 12, 50 yrs down the line our love has become as solid as a tree. anyway, can you tell me the name of that song...I would love to look it up on the internet (I don't live in USA). Thanks and God bless you and your lovely family!
