Tekster: Kathy Mattea. The Battle Hymn of Love.

I will pledge my heart
To the love we share
Through the good
And the bad times too

I'll forsake my rest
For your happiness
'Til my death I will stand by you

With God as my witness
This vow I will make
To have and to hold you
No other to take

For rich or for poor
Under skies grey or blue
'Til my death I will stand by you
There are war's and there are rumor's
Of war's yet to come

Temptations we'll have to walk through
Though others may tremble
I will not run
'Til my death I will stand by you

I will put on the armor of faithfulness
To fight for a heart that is true
'Til the battle is won, I will not rest
'Til my death I will stand by you

With God as my witness
This vow I will make
To have and to hold you
No other to take

For rich or for poor
Under skies grey or blue
'Til my death I will stand by you
'Til the battle is won
I will not run
'Til my death I will stand by you
