Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I will pledge my heart to the love we share
Through the good and the bad times too
I'll forsake my rest for your happiness
Till my death, I will stand by you
[Verse 2]
With God as my witness, this vow I will make
To have and to hold you, no other to take
For rich or for poor, under skies grey or blue
Till my death, I will stand by you
[Verse 3]
There are wars and there are rumors
Of wars yet to come
Temptations we'll have to walk through
Though others may tremble, I will not run
Till my death, I will stand by you
[Verse 4]
I will put on the armor of faithfulness
And fight for a heart that is true
Till the battle is won, I will not rest
Till my death, I will stand by you
[Verse 5]
With God as my witness, this vow I will make
To have and to hold you, no other to take
For rich or for poor, under skies grey or blue
Till my death, I will stand by you
[Verse 6]
Till the battle is won, I will not run
Till my death, I will stand by you
