For Always



You are why I am
Who I am.

I am why you are
Who you are.

You and I
Are why we are
Who we will be.

And what we are
To each other
Matters more than anything
In the world to me, because
For each other--for life,
We are made One--today.

With God's Grace,
I hope and pray that
Love will be
Ours to hold and
Honor and cherish...
For always!
