love is more than a lover 
a wife is more than a ring 
drink all of your day's pleasure 
let it bring tomorrow;s sting 
a virgin's pride's gone out of style it seems 
but i say style's out of itself 

(chorus)
so don't let your wedding fade to gray 
don't let what'll be back then lead you astray 
for when we're no longer you and i 
but us my proverb doll 

a doll visits me in prayers 
her heart's your house, you're her first love 
she hangs on your everlasting word 
she hangs her picture in my mind's hall 

(chorus)

she's clothed in strength and dignity 
she laughs at days to come 
her love for Jesus is why she's beautiful to me 

(chorus)
