Shari

Looking back at the roads I've walked

Through the quiet prayers and the late-night talks

I promised myself I would stay sincere

And hold onto truth through every passing year

They say a faithful heart is a heavy load

But it's the only way I know to walk this road

I’ve tried to be a steady light, compassionate and strong

A place where the people that I love belong

Loyal to the promises, honest to the core

I couldn't ask the heavens for a single second more

This is the story of Shari, written in the days

Just living in an honest kind of grace

Larry’s hand is still holding mine

Through the shifting seasons and the tests of time

And the children we raised are my deepest pride

Watching them grow with a love I couldn't hide

Every little moment was a gift I chose to give

It's the only way I ever really wanted to live

I’ve tried to be a steady light, compassionate and strong

A place where the people that I love belong

Loyal to the promises, honest to the core

I couldn't ask the heavens for a single second more

This is the story of Shari, written in the days

Just living in an honest kind of grace

There were shadows and rain, there were mountains to climb

But a loving spirit stands the test of time

I stayed true to my soul, kept my feet on the ground

And I cherish this beautiful life I have found

I’ll always be a steady light, compassionate and strong

A place where the people that I love belong

Loyal to the promises, honest to the core

I couldn't ask the heavens for a single second more

This is the story of Shari, written in the days

Just living in an honest kind of grace

Yeah, I'm living in an honest kind of grace
