Anniversary 61
(Verse 1)
Can I say enough or sing enough to get the story right?
How you live for others, for me,
For your children day and night.
You are friends with many angel women within your sight.
You give each other strength and share your constant light.
Few women will ever be as true as you.
Your Temple vows you keep. Each day you renew.
Your skillful, gentle, helpful, thoughts you always review.
Never feel guilt for any things you didn’t do.
[Chorus]
Guilt’s a bummer, Dear, just remember who you are.
A wonder it would be if all women could rise so far.
As you do and have done all your life.
I’m grateful, Loni, that you live free from hateful strife.
[guitar solo]
You’re a near perfect woman, Dear, accept our aging fears.
It’s true, some life event do cause several tears.
But you have been totally unyielding to sin
Through the years.
When it comes to meanness, hateful ways are NEVER near.
Let’s keep on the path to join our parents dear.
Let’s do the things that keep the spirit near.
Let’s support one another with love, not fear.
I love you, Dear, we’ve shifted to high. It’s a growth gear.
[Chorus]
Guilt’s a bummer, Dear, just remember who you are.
A wonder it would be if all women could rise so far.
As you do and have done all your life.
I’m grateful, Loni, that you live free from hateful strife.
[guitar solo]
You are an angel, Dear,
Never feel guilty again.
