From Psalm 85:10-11: “Steadfast love and faithfulness will meet; righteousness and peace will kiss each other. Faithfulness will spring up from the ground, and righteousness will look down from the sky.”

Love joins together
Blessed from God above
Faithful life journey
Sharing precious love
Love binds forever
Stirred from God above
Grace’s living bread
Feeding sincere love
Love resolves trials
Strength from God above
Hope flows eternal
Walking in His love
Love’s cherished partner
Blooms from God above
Daily life smiles back
Breathing trust in love
Love climbs each mountain
Backed by God above
Humble hands touching
Bonding in His love

Country music entertainer Marty Robbins (1925-1982) was a gifted vocalist and songwriter. In 1970 he wrote and recorded “My Woman, My Woman, My Wife.” His efforts were awarded with a Grammy for Best Country Music Song. This song served as some of the inspiration behind this poem.
