Words of love

I love you as you love me true

our love is ever-caring,

there was no rough there was no smooth,

that you and me weren't sharing.

And trouble shared is trouble halved,

when troubles are allying;

you were the comfort for my part,

your laments made me crying.

So be God's blessing upon you

My joy, my life, my being.

The Lord may keep and shelter you,

protect and keep us living.
