I ________shall stand by you__________

in sickness and in health

in lack and in plenty,

in joy and in sorrow,


I shall challenge you to grow,

encourage you when you’re down,

never criticize you to others,


I shall excel in building a happy home,

for you and our children,

that our union may be,

a refuge and a shelter for others,


For as long as my breath shall last
