25th Anniversary

[joe57]

In the year of ninety-six

On a great and glorious day

I married the love of my life

On the twenty-fourth of May

 

The best thing I ever did

My friends would often say

Was to marry that gal Beth

On the twenty-fourth of May

 

Before it ever happened tho

To the Lord we each did pray

For the one that would complete us

Oh! When would be that day?

 

‘Ere we even met each other

He helped us along the way

And providentially He took us

To the twenty-fourth of May

 

Oh! What a joy to behold

God’s leading day by day

And lovingly He brought us

To the twenty-fourth of May

 

And now down here without my queen

To Him I’ll still give praise

He’ll tenderly console my heart

This twenty-fourth of May
