As You Marry As your journey in life takes a new turn, may you know there are always new lessons to learn. Your steps are not mapped, but may they be steady; your hands when they're needed, be willing and ready, your tears not excessive, but honest and pure; decisions be righteous, though you may be unsure. May crooked paths straighten, with perseverance and prayer; may the way you see others be kind and be fair. May your dreams keep you reaching, and sometimes come true; your strenghth conquer pain when its challenging you. May anger recede like the sea from the sand; may forgiveness be held in the palm of your hand. May your words be a comfort, your touch, care and grace, May you greet each new day with happy embrace. May your eyes hold the shine of a twinkling star, and may you always have faith in the person you are. 1/05/01 |
