In eternity past
Before God formed this world
He planned for two hearts to
become one
Their love for Christ
The Solid Rock foundation for
their lives
Desire to honor and glorify the
Lord
Unwavering trust
In both good times and bad
God is praised
Not only with their lips
But with their very lives
When trouble’s strong winds began
to blow
Waves threatened to swamp them
They clung to Christ all the more
Their hope in Him could not be quenched
Though pain and suffering
threatened to extinguish the flame
Hope’s light burned brighter in
the darkness
Like Paul they believe
Our present sufferings are not
worthy to be compared
To the surpassing greatness of
knowing Christ
This present life is passing away
It’s only when we die, that a
Christian will be truly home
Until that time
Eyes focused on Christ
Hearts fully committed
Trust in the unfailing source of their
strength
For each day, Christ is walking
with them
Their young lives, a living
testimony
To Christ their Savior and God
He alone is their hope
The proof and evidence of the
resurrection to come
Of life everlasting, without end
For
Tyler and Mariah
