Love is tender, love is caring,
Sensing every mood sublime---
Always true, forever sharing.
Two hearts as one: beating, flaring,
Pulsing, prancing in perfect rhyme;
Love is tender, love is caring.
One can't ask of it the daring
Of faithless deeds or lowly crime;
Always true, forever sharing.
There's the closeness and the baring
Of soul and body through all time;
Love is tender, love is caring.
Sweet to see its beauty wearing
Golden aura throughout its prime;
Always true, forever sharing.
Honor God, who set the pairing!
Praise those who in love's song chime!
Love is tender, love is caring;
Always true, forever sharing.
