Once upon a time

We met during a long, winding journey

We marveled at the feat

We knew it was God’s plan

As we held hands

We let go of the past

In order to make each moment last

Once upon a time

We learned to stay true to what we hold dear

To keep God near

We stumbled along the way

But we stayed on course

We knew we’d rise

That wasn’t a surprise

Once upon a time

We saw miracles unfold

We heard the backstory told

We were covered by grace

As we moved from place to place

Once upon a time

We learned the true meaning of love

A love that’s softer than a dove

We learned to stay on track

Regardless of what we lack

Once upon a time
