Fifty-Five Years My Rock

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We started out with little more Than hope and faith to guide the way Two hearts and dreams beside a door That opened to a brand new day And through it all these fifty-five years You've been the one to calm my fears [Chorus] Oh John, you've always been my rock The steady ground beneath my feet Through every storm, through every knock You made this humble life complete With faith and love that never ends My husband and my dearest friend [Verse 2] We traveled roads across the world From nothing to a life so grand And every flag that we unfurled Was raised with your strong, gentle hand For me, our kids, our family too There's nothing you would never do [Chorus] Oh John, you've always been my rock The steady ground beneath my feet Through every storm, through every knock You made this humble life complete With faith and love that never ends My husband and my dearest friend [Bridge] Life wasn't always kind or fair But we had each other, always there So humble, smart, and strong and true I'd spend it all again with you [Verse 3] Now here we stand, still holding on The years have made our love run deep Though youth and easy days are gone Your promise is the one I keep I'd choose you every single day And thank the Lord you came my way [Chorus] Oh John, you've always been my rock The steady ground beneath my feet Through every storm, through every knock You made this humble life complete With faith and love that never ends My husband and my dearest friend [Outro] So here's to us, and all we've done My rock, my love, my only one
