Eternal Marriage Is an Eternal Journey (Neil L. Andersen) [Apr 2026]

On Easter morn the tomb could hold no more, The risen Christ had opened heaven’s door. Because He lives, our families can be sealed, Eternal marriage is the promise revealed. Eternal journey, hand in hand we go, Bound by covenants that forever grow. Refining hearts to be like Christ our King, Eternal marriage is an eternal journey we sing. I knelt across the altar, love so true, With Kathy by my side, our dreams anew. For time and all eternity we vowed that day, To walk together on this heavenward way. Eternal journey, hand in hand we go, Bound by covenants that forever grow. Refining hearts to be like Christ our King, Eternal marriage is an eternal journey we sing. Through trials, joys, and every changing tide, We learn to sacrifice, forgive, and abide. More patient, kind, and pure in every part, Becoming like the Savior, heart to heart. We keep our eyes on Him who leads us home, Through mortal days until the day we’re shown. Unselfish love and faith that will not end, Eternal marriage — with our dearest friend. Eternal journey, hand in hand we go, Bound by covenants that forever grow. Refining hearts to be like Christ our King, Eternal marriage is an eternal journey we sing. He lives, He lives, the Savior of our soul, His sealing power makes broken families whole. We’ll praise His name through all eternity, Eternal journey — back to Him with thee.
