For those of you who have asked me for this, here 'tis:

Striving To Remain...

I can't wait to see the look in your eyes when you tell me about your life
And that you want to spend the rest of it with me
To see your smile when I say yes and join you on your knees
Thanking God for the love He's given us

But until then
Oh, I am

Striving, to remain just for you
Keep my eyes, focused on the truth
And I pray that I can say
For every temptation that came
I overcame them,
For You


And when I give you the treasured gift of my first kiss
Know that with it I give you my heart
Yours to have and keep and hold and as we grow old
I pray the love in it will grow

Will you wait for me
Like I wait for you
Down on my knees
Will you pledge to me
Like I pledge to you
To be
Only yours before we even meet

"...she will do him good and not evil all the days of her life..." - Proverbs 31.12
