May Love Abide

On this day and everyday forward
May Love Abide

As a new life dawns
standing side by side
May your hearts love abide
May the dreams that you're dreaming
all come true
And may everything wonderful
happen to you

May you come to know
that in love it's wise
To give yourself
and to compromise
To learn how to listen
and how to forgive
And to treasure each other
as long as you live

May you be as happy
as you can be
In a home that's filled
with tranquility
But when storms arise
and they cause distress
May you counter the turmoil
with tenderness

As you share in the laughter
and the tears
May you freely express your hopes
and your fears
May you grow old together
side by side
And forever and always
may true love abide
