Jimmy and Mary were quite a pair back in their younger days

They met a married in six weeks time and

That was sixty years ago this May

Four kids made a house a home and a love for Jesus kept them strong

Now every morning at eight A..M.. Jimmy takes a drive through town

He reads her stories about the promised land

And with tears in their eyes they dream of a place

When the life breaks through and the old's made new

And the joy will never die, that's paradise

That He'll never leave us and each prayer will be heard





(Chorus)
