“Marriage for Eternity,” New Era, Sept. 1993, 10–11 In Tune: Marriage for Eternity Words by Jill Johnson Music by K. Newell Dayley Moderatly 1. Like Rebekah, I shall forsake the rest to marry in the covenant and meet the Lord’s request. I’ll nurture valiant children and teach them of the plan, That my children’s children’s children may be blessed, may be blessed as only the righteous can. Marriage for eternity blesses my posterity. As each branch of our tree turned upward unto thee, growing upward, forever in thee. Chorus 2. Like Isaac, I’ll follow and prepare to marry in the covenant, eternal blessings share. I’ll teach to all my children the power of the plan, That my children’s children’s children will be blessed will be blessed as only the righteous can. Marriage for eternity blesses my posterity. As each branch of our tree turned upward unto thee, growing upward, forever, in thee. Chorus Chorus Marriage for eternity blesses my posterity. As each branch of our tree turned upward unto thee, growing upward, forever, in thee. Growing upward, forever, in thee. Copyright © 1993 by Newell Dayley and Jill Johnson. All rights reserved.
