Fifty-Seven Years of Sundays

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Fifty-seven years down a winding road Hand in hand we carried every load Through the prayers we whispered, the songs we'd sing Faith has been the thread through everything Built a life on a Sunday vow And I'm still that lucky fella now [Chorus] Oh, what a love, what a long sweet ride With my best friend standing by my side Through every storm and the sunshine too Lord, I thank You for the gift of you Here's to us, to the years gone by And the road ahead beneath this country sky [Verse 2] Dianne, you've always had my back Never heard you grumble when the road got black When the going got tough, you'd step right in With that quiet strength and that gentle grin Three little ones grew beneath your wings Now grandkids laugh and the great-grands sing [Chorus] Oh, what a love, what a long sweet ride With my best friend standing by my side Through every storm and the sunshine too Lord, I thank You for the gift of you Here's to us, to the years gone by And the road ahead beneath this country sky [Bridge] Ministry and marriage, the same sweet call You gave your heart, you gave your all [Verse 3] Dianne, my darling, my answered prayer There's no one like you, no one anywhere From the pulpit pews to the family table You made every season strong and stable If God lets me choose, I'd choose again Every road, every mile, my Dianne [Chorus] Oh, what a love, what a long sweet ride With my best friend standing by my side Through every storm and the sunshine too Lord, I thank You for the gift of you [Outro] Here's to us, to the love we've grown Dianne, sweet Dianne, you're my home
