Knotwork


 

Families, like knotwork, weave and form links,
bringing beauty and change into old blood...
My marriage in 1980 to Rev. Joseph Grenier
was a gift of love that reflects God's Own...
 
 
"THIS KNOTWORK WE WEAVE"
 
 
Some said that you were too old for me
While others said I was too young,
But marrying you, as I look back today,
Is the best thing that I've ever done.
 
We've suffered our sorrows and danced in our joys
You live out your priesthood this way
Our marriage and family give glory to God
As our love grows deeper each day.
 
But some said...
 
Two houses are one, our blood lines have crossed
The child we bore reflects this love
So on this special day, we remember our vows
And renew them before God above.
 
Though some said...
 
For our love is timeless and ageless you see
It is both ancient and new
And our life together, this knotwork we weave,
By God's grace, is eternal too.
 
But some said...
