Jimmie

Do you remember the day we said "I do"?

You handled every detail, so steady and true.

You bought the rings, took away all the fuss,

Said, "Baby, just show up, leave the rest to us."

Married on nine-eleven, you kept my heart calm,

Joked you were the terrorist, and I was the bomb.

You always know how to make me smile,

I felt so safe walking down that aisle.

Oh, Jimmie, I vow to walk hand in hand,

With my God-sent, beautiful, sweet loving man.

Not walking before you, not trailing behind,

But right beside you, for the rest of our time.

You make me feel cherished in all that you do,

My greatest blessing is standing by you.

You carry a freedom when the hard times roll,

A long-suffering joy deep down in your soul.

You're smart and you're strong, a leader with grace,

With so much integrity lighting your face.

You tell me you love me each morning we wake,

Gentle and faithful in the steps that you take.

You call me your gift, say you're grateful for me,

But your tender heart is what set my love free.

Oh, Jimmie, I vow to walk hand in hand,

With my God-sent, beautiful, sweet loving man.

Not walking before you, not trailing behind,

But right beside you, for the rest of our time.

You make me feel cherished in all that you do,

My greatest blessing is standing by you.

No matter the circumstance, you find the light,

You hold me close and you make it all right.

Patient and funny, my rock and my guide,

I'm spending forever right here by your side.

Oh, Jimmie, I vow to walk hand in hand,

With my God-sent, beautiful, sweet loving man.

Not walking before you, not trailing behind,

But right beside you, for the rest of our time.

You make me feel cherished in all that you do,

My greatest blessing is standing by you.
