The Marriage Prayer

And yet another wonderful song, to be sung at a wedding mass! This one's called the Marriage prayer.
The song is composed by John Waller. A beautiful prayer indeed!


The Marriage Prayer 

Father, I said till death do us part
I want to mean it with all of my heart
Help me to love you more than I love her
Then I know I can love her more than anyone else

And bring her in Your presence today, 
Make her what You want her to be

I pray to hear her heart, 
I pray she'll love you more
I pray to cherish and serve her 
And we'll bring you glory today, I pray

Father, I said till death do us part
I want to mean it with all of my heart
Help me to love you more than I love him
Then I know I can love him more than anyone else

And bring him in Your presence today
Make him what You want him to be

I pray to hear his heart, 
I pray he'll love you more
I pray to strengthen and serve him, 
We'll bring you glory today, I pray


Lord help me love her as you love the Church, Your bride
Help me to submit to him as I submit to You, my life


I pray (I pray) to hear her heart, 
I pray (I pray) he'll love you more
I pray (I pray) to cherish and serve her, 
and we'll bring you glory today, I pray

I pray to hear her heart, 
I pray she'll love you more
I pray to cherish and serve her, 
and we'll bring you glory today, I pray

This is my prayer. 
Amen .
