Selecting a subject for this week’s Photo Challenge theme, Companionable, was a no-brainer. My husband has been by my side, as a faithful companion, for nearly 28 years. He is my constant companion.
The lyrics below are from a favorite song of ours, and part of our anniversary playlist. It precisely describes my sentiments about my wonderful companion. Unfortunately, I was not able to find a recording/video of it online.
Constant Companion
by Mike Reid
‘Turning for Home’
We are born into this world
All of us alone
So alone we must leave
But while we’re here
Were given one another
To have and hold faithfully
Oh, your love
Is my constant companion
As constant as the moon and stars
In a world ever changing
I find it amazing
What a constant companion you are
Oh, what a constant companion you are
There are times in my life
Fear rushes in
Leaving me tired and confused
Then love’s sweet voice
Rises up inside me
And in you my strength is renewed
Oh, your love
Is my constant companion
As constant as the moon and stars
In a world ever changing
I find it amazing
What a constant companion you are
Oh, what a constant companion you are
Bridge:
Blow on
Chilly winds around me
I will not be moved
In a world ever changing
I find it amazing
What a constant companion you are
Oh, what a constant companion you are
**I try not to take for granted my husband’s love and constant companionship. I am a blessed woman, indeed **
