"Richer Than Silver, Richer Than Gold"
A Love that is true
It never grows old
It's richer than silver
And richer than gold.
Enduring the hard times
Working them through
Yet savoring the memories
Even though misconstrued.
It's giving a light
Through nights dark and dense
Giving a reason when
Nothing makes sense.
Giving your strength
When mountains get steep
When weakened from exhaustion
When the body's too weak.
When eyes fogged with tears
They feel they must cry
Let them know
Your right by their side.
Lifting their spirits
When they seem to break down,
Let them know
You're always around.
It's showing them sunlight
When the sun does'nt shine
A promise you'll be there
Til the end of time.
A Love that is true
It never grows old
It's richer than silver
And richer than gold.
