The Tower Standing Tall

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The porch light's glowing soft and low, The workday's finally letting go. A lifetime built with steady hands, Through every season, every plan. You gave your all and never asked, The quiet hero, home at last. [Chorus] Oh, here's to you, the strong and true, The one who carried us all through. A tower standing tall and sure, My steady heart, my calm, my cure. The years roll on, the work is done, And now the peaceful days have come. [Verse 2] Sixty years of holding on, Through morning light and setting sun. You solved each trouble, eased each fear, And wiped away each falling tear. Larry Wright, you always found the way, A trusted friend and lover stay. [Chorus] Oh, here's to you, the strong and true, The one who carried us all through. A tower standing tall and sure, My steady heart, my calm, my cure. The years roll on, the work is done, And now the peaceful days have come. [Bridge] Seven children learned to stand, Held up by your gentle hand. Grandkids gather 'round to say, "You're the one we love today." [Verse 3] My refuge from the storms of life, Through all the wind, you've been my light. The family you raised is proud, We'll say your name and say it loud. Larry Wright, this song is meant for you, For all the strength you carried through. [Chorus] Oh, here's to you, the strong and true, The one who carried us all through. A tower standing tall and sure, My steady heart, my calm, my cure. The years roll on, the work is done, And now the peaceful days have come. [Outro] So rest now, love, your race is run, Larry Wright, our hearts, our shining sun.
