This ring on my finger
Is more treasured than gold
Means a lifetime of loving
'Til we're carried home
Worn by my grandfather
For sixty-eight years
I will stand by my bride
The same he did his
"I love you truly"
In the snow of '44
A few months on the farm
And you were sent off to war
Hard work built a family
But your faith got you through
Hand in hand 'til
Life's goodbyes were due
Oh this legacy of love
We'll carry on
Before life complicated
It was just you and me
Up talking past midnight
Realizing our dreams
Maybe all that we wanted
Was all that we need
Every day, every hour
Together we're free
Oh this legacy of love
We'll carry on
This ring on my finger
Is more treasured than gold
Means a lifetime of loving
'Til we're carried home
Oh this legacy of love
We'll carry on
As we join our voices to
The greater song
Put through fire
And comes out strong
Oh this legacy of love
We'll carry on
