| If Two Souls Were Ever One By Rich Reith Life made us strangers But friends were made by love Simple vows bonded hearts on earth, and up above Looking out upon loves ocean Standing together on its shore Knowing that it stretches to forevermore. Love altered both our paths, and carried us safely home To the wondrous place of surcease Needing nevermore to roam. It was love abolished loneliness and filled our hearts with wonder took our fright, our earthly cares and tore them all asunder. So stand with me and taste my love. Let calm embrace your heart. And vow to me, my love, my wife that we shall never part. For if two souls were ever one, Those souls are mine and yours. Bonded by God, bonded by love, Living on sacred shores.
