Steady Hands and Steadfast Hearts

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We were young, the choir raised its song Two voices found where they belonged Brown eyes shining in the pew, And half a century I've loved you Through every season, come what may, God has walked with us each day [Chorus] Oh Karen, my forever and my friend, Fifty years and I'd choose it all again A love that faith and grace has grown, You never know what a day holds But I know I'm never walking it alone [Verse 2] You held our home with steady hands, While I preached the Word and worked each day Three little girls, their newborn cries, The sweetest joy before our eyes Now six more blessings gather near, The legacy we're building here [Chorus] Oh Karen, my forever and my friend, Fifty years and I'd choose it all again A love that faith and grace has grown, You never know what a day holds But I know I'm never walking it alone [Bridge] Through the storms that tried our hearts, We came through, never torn apart Steadfast still, your faith so bright, You lift our family toward the light [Verse 3] The days move slow and that's alright, A quiet peace, a settled life Soon we'll rest from all the years, Still hand in hand, still holding dear To God, to grandkids, to this vow, The best is still before us now [Chorus] Oh Karen, my forever and my friend, Fifty years and I'd choose it all again A love that faith and grace has grown, You never know what a day holds But I know I'm never walking it alone [Outro] Thank God for every road we've known, And Karen, you have made this house a home
