Our Love


		OUR LOVE

		Our love is like an ocean from the first drop of rain
			Once it wasn’t at all, now it’s hard to explain
		It came in like a dream but never went away
			Our lives were changed on that special day

		Our love will not shine and like a sunset fade
			In heaven and on earth it is forever made
		It wasn’t by chance that it all came about
			God made it happen and there’s no doubt

		Our love will not blossom and die like a flower
			It will keep on growing and gaining in power
		Though hardships creep in like the darkness of night
			We see our way through and back to what’s right

		Our love goes beyond all time and space
			It is felt from within and seen on the face
		As we comfort each other with a feeling of care
			There’s a blessing from heaven that we both share

		Our love runs so deep that without a surprise
			It meets with the soul and together they’ll rise
		As we go from today and into forever
			Love will be there to keep us together

		Our love . . . I love you!
