The fountains mingle with the river
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of heaven mix for ever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single,
All things by a law divine
In one another’s being mingle -
Why not I with thine?
See the mountains kiss high heaven
And the waves clasp one another;
No sister-flower would be forgiven
If it disdain’d its brother:
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea -
What are all these kissings worth,
If thou kiss not me?

Oh the comfort of feeling safe
with a person;
having neither to weigh thoughts,
nor measure words,
but to pour them all out
just as chaff and grain together,
knowing that a faithful hand
will take and sift them,
keeping what is worth keeping
and with a breath of kindness,
blow the rest away.

Two hands to hold onto forever,
Two arms to be embraced by eternally,
Two eyes to gaze into for always,
Two lips to kiss so passionately.
Two souls fused by commitment,
Two names written in the stars above,
Two lives intertwined by God,
Two hearts joined by the purest of love.
Lord, help us to remember when we first met
And the strong love that grew between us.
Help us to work that love into practical things
So nothing can divide us.
We ask for words both kind and loving,
And for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness,
As well as to forgive.
Dear Lord, we put our marriage into Your hands.

Vows to take, and prayers to say
On that their blessed wedding day
The dream has been seen, and fantasies thought.
And the angels dress already bought.
Her little girl fantasy will come to life
When the two come together as man and wife.
That day the church will be filled with stars,
Coming from galaxies both near and far.
Tears will shed when exchanging the rings.
And kissing when on glasses there are clings.
She’ll look gorgeous before him in a gown of white
‘Cause an angel is such a wondrous sight.
They’ll dance on the softest clouds of gold
And begin the promise to have and to hold.
We’ll remember her veil, and the long matching train
And know how she looked when taking his name.
That day will be filled with joy and with love
And heaven sent blessings from god up above.
Sadly the day must come to an end.
But the angel now has a lover and friend.
If you think the story I tell is not true
Believe that it is. The next angel is you.
