WE ARE NOT BEATEN
by
Alice C. Bateman
My Love, we are not beaten
We won’t let those rogues defeat us
They can see how strong we’re going to be
So they think they must unseat us
They challenge us and challenge us
But we just will not lie down
They kick us punch us hurt us
But I cannot keep this frown
Because our God, who loves us
Has brought your Love to me
Because our Love’s a Beacon
There for all to see
They may throw us setbacks
And curves and yes, more waiting
But our love just grows stronger
Shows no sign of abating
We were shown the wondrous vision
Of our souls becoming one
And by this we know, my Darling
Our time here is not done
We are only just beginning
In this lifetime, you and me
We will make a good beginning
We just have to wait and see
What timing will occur
That will bring you to my door
And then not to be parted
Not forever, ever more
