The Perfect Couple
They walked along together for so many many years
In constant close communion through the joys and through the tears
And tried by their example to enlighten those who'd see
Their love for one another as what true love has to be
They never had a cross word as that was not how they spoke
Nor did they make each other the butt end of someone's joke
But always kept respecting what the other had to say
And made sure all was perfect between them at close of day
And even when assaulted by another who was wrong
They would not be divided as their love for each was strong
And then again they'd make sure at the end of every day
No pain or hurt still lingered from what someone had to say
And not because their focus was on how they should be kind
Or how they would be happy if they shared a similar mind
But for one simple reason that we all need in our heart
A oneness with the Father never tears two souls apart
But enriches and enhances everything that two might do
Makes bonds that can't be broken as each day for them is new
Exploring endless wonders in the character they see
That's growing and developing despite adversity
For as long as we're in this world where sin still has control
Of almost everybody who is not made clean and whole
By heaven's intercession through the Person of God's Son
We find it overwhelming trying hard to be as one
But still we have example through this couple we admire
Who after three long centuries were taken even higher
As God in Jesus said to His dear friend it's time to go
And raptured faithful Enoch to that place we've yet to know
But is for us still waiting as our privilege to be
The place we too can dwell in throughout all eternity
As one with Christ our Saviour meeting Enoch everyday
As they still walk together in their same consistent way
Discussing what's before them when Christ comes for His redeemed
Comes back for those who truly live the love that He esteemed
As oneness with each other as He showed to us of old
Recorded in the scriptures where the Truth of love is told
Romans 13:8; Galatians 5:13-17; 1 John 4:7-12; Genesis 5:24; Hebrews 11:5
