Analysis of You Are My Love



My precious love
 So sweet and true
 I asked the Lord for a good man
 He sent me you
 He knew my heart
 Would be in good hands
 Until the day
 He takes me home again
 Our prayers are answered
 Our hearts entwined
 Our Lord and Saviour
 Made our life combined
 Our solemn vow
 To our Father above
 Just as He does us
 Each other we also love
