Young Love

To cherish and save The love that we gave Together forever From here to the grave To embrace and to hold The love pure as gold A part of my heart To be treasured unsold To know and to heed The love that we need Is given to live in The Lord at the lead To hope and to dare The love that we share Be fruitful and plentiful Within Fathers care To possess and to pray The love of today May grow more tomorrow And with each passing day Know this: Fewer things are more pure in this world Than the young love of a boy and a girl Fewer still are more worthy Than this love everlasting for all eternity So now I ask With time running restlessly Will you not take my hand And join me endlessly? For more awaits both you and I But I can’t go without you at my side A world awaits For us to grow fond Of the journeys and wonders Of a life beyond Beyond the horizons your eye can see A place just meant for you and me.
