Marriage is hard
Feelings get hurt
Mistakes made in anger
Leave me face down in the dirt
Why do I expect
So much from my spouse?
When I'm less than perfect
Flaws -- I'm not without
It's hard to love
Someone selfish like me
I want acts of grandeur
To soothe my insecurities
But why should I give
Any less than I want
My God loves me daily
Hold back love - He does not
So even when it's hard
I will love every day
The way Christ commands
In a patient and kind way
I will not be proud, rude, or self-seeking
When I need to change
I'll let God do his tweeking
To make me a wife
Who loves even when it's hard
Because true love with God
Is more than a Valentine card
