In the final days of summer, 1944, |
[00:35.66] |
with just a preacher and a witness and a humble band of gold, |
[00:42.54] |
They set out to find the future, not a penny to their name. |
[00:49.60] |
Still with all the unknown danger, she knew her heart was safe, |
[00:55.72] |
cause. |
[00:56.24] |
He was a rock |
[00:59.24] |
He was the one that she ran to |
[01:02.79] |
And when he said the words "Forever" |
[01:06.84] |
She knew that it was true |
[01:09.73] |
He wasn't a saint |
[01:12.78] |
But he was saint enough for her |
[01:16.38] |
He was a man, |
[01:19.12] |
A man of his word. |
[01:27.76] |
In the final days of summer, 1964, |
[01:33.80] |
found a family undivided, divided on the war. |
[01:40.78] |
Turning son against his elder, debating wrong and right, |
[01:47.36] |
He was the image of his father, though they would not see eye to eye, |
[01:53.93] |
still... |
[01:54.28] |
He was a rock |
[01:57.18] |
He was the one the boy ran to |
[02:00.98] |
Cause' when he said the word "I Love You" |
[02:04.87] |
He knew that it was true |
[02:07.59] |
And even in the worst of storms |
[02:11.16] |
There was an anchor in his world |
[02:14.56] |
He was a man, |
[02:17.34] |
A man of his word. |
[02:22.55] |
Clutching a strong belief in the bible, |
[02:28.82] |
through all the sweetness in his life, and the bitterness of war, |
[02:37.49] |
He knew what God had made him for... |
[02:46.34] |
In the final days of summer, 1994, |
[02:52.90] |
surrounded by his family and the presence of the Lord. |
[02:59.68] |
He set out to find his future, the one he'd always known, |
[03:06.36] |
He didn't want to leave his family, but he knew deep in his soul, |
[03:09.79] |
The lord had called him home... |
[03:16.80] |
cause... |
[03:18.53] |
He was the rock |
[03:21.58] |
He was the one the man ran to |
[03:25.43] |
And when he said the words "forever" |
[03:28.98] |
He knew that it was true |
[03:31.82] |
He wasn't a saint |
[03:35.16] |
he is the one the saints bow to |
[03:38.73] |
Receiving a man, |
[03:41.42] |
A man of his word... |
[03:45.97] |
He was the one that I ran to |
[03:48.80] |
Cause when he says the word "forever" |
[03:52.85] |
I know his word is true |
[03:55.72] |
He isn't a saint |
[03:58.84] |
He is the one the saints bow to |
[04:02.71] |
Come to teh man |
[04:05.18] |
The man of his word. |
