An anniversary poem from my dad

These are undeserved words, but I thought it was so sweet and special, I wanted to share it.  Thank you, Dad and Mom.

A thrill embraced our hearts as she
     Surrendered to God's call;
"I want to serve the Lord", she said,
     "A Missionary Call".

At college she was faithful to
     Her calling every day,
And then she met Brent Williams
     And dated this "M.K."

As parents of this lovely girl
     Our prayers had always been
That she would marry someone who
     Would be her dearest friend,

And share her heart's desire to give
     God's message to the lost.
When she and Brent were married,
     They'd counted out the cost.

Their life together has been blessed,
     As God gave them three more!
They all serve Him together and
     To them, it's not a chore.

It's anniversary time again,
     Now fifteen years, plus two;
Congratulations, Brent and Mir!
     We are still proud of you!
