Les

In two thousand and nine, the seasons were cold

A hard time in my life, a heavy story told

Then you stepped into the shadows, patient and strong

You took the time to know me, to learn my spirit's song

You looked into my soul to see what I had missed

And finally showed me what love really is

Les, you are my one true love, my special person in this life

Twelve beautiful years I've been blessed to be your wife

And just like the Maker, whose mercy will not cease

You wrap me in faithfulness, you bring my spirit peace

I love the way you love me, so tender and so true

And I pray God's everlasting love is pouring over you

When my body was weary and I fell so ill

You stayed right by my bedside, faithful and still

Compassionate and caring, you nursed me back to health

Your loyal, wise devotion is my greatest earthly wealth

You learned me intimately, you knew just how to care

A loving, gentle husband, an answer to my prayer

Les, you are my one true love, my special person in this life

Twelve beautiful years I've been blessed to be your wife

And just like the Maker, whose mercy will not cease

You wrap me in faithfulness, you bring my spirit peace

I love the way you love me, so tender and so true

And I pray God's everlasting love is pouring over you

May His grace and His face shine upon you every day

May He lift up His countenance and guide you on your way

God loves you unconditionally, His love endures forever

He gave me you, my darling, to walk this road together

May the Lord give you peace in everything you do

'Cause Les, you are my one true love, my special person in this life

Twelve beautiful years I've been blessed to be your wife

I love the way you love me, so tender and so true

May God's everlasting love forever rest on you

May His countenance and peace forever rest on you
