Bright, shiny and refreshingly new.
You knocked on my door, with your spirit so free,
And into my heart you flew.
You brought beauty and order into my life,
With your true love, your joy, and your peace.
Words of hope eased my strife, and was
Sweet to my soul, providing a welcome release.
God designed that marriage would make us complete,
And so, for me, He had you in mind.
Bound by words of love we did eagerly repeat,
To be patient, protective and kind.
The wonder of you fills my soul with much pride,
By always encouraging and building me up.
Never seeking to boast or allow envy to abide,
You overflow my spiritual cup.
We have but to look in each others eyes,
To see that the Lord is good.
Or hold hands in the shadow of life’s sighs to be sure,
That nothing or no one can intrude.
Like pennies from heaven, God sent you to me.
Bright, shiny and refreshingly new.
You knocked on my door, with your spirit so free,
And into my heart you flew.
