BRIDAL MARCH “Lohengrin”……………..Wagner

HYMN

Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy,
Whose trust, ever child like, no cares could destroy,
Be there at our waking, and give us, we pray,
Your bliss in our hearts, Lord, at the break of the day.

Lord of all eagerness, Lord of all faith,
Whose strong hands were skilled at the plane and the lathe,
Be there at our labours and give us, we pray,
Your strength in our hearts, Lord, at the noon of the day.

Lord of all kindliness, Lord of all grace,
Your hands swift towelcome, your arms to embrace,
Be there at our homing, and give us, we pray,
Your love in our hearts, Lord, at the noon of the day.

Lord of all gentleness, Lord of all calm,
Whose voice is contentment, whose presence is balm,
Be there at our sleeping, and give us, we pray,
Your peace in our hearts, Lord, at the end of the day.

THE MARRIAGE

Conducted by Reverend Peter Jackson

HYMN

All things bright and beautiful,
All creatures great and small,
All things wise and wonderful,
The Lord God make them all.

Each little flower that opens,
Each little bird that sings,
He made their glowing colours,
He made their tiny wings.
All things bright, etc.

The cold wind in the winter,
The pleasant summer sun,
The ripe fruits in the garden,
He made them every one.
All things bright, etc.

He gave us eyes to see them,
And lips that we might tell,
How great is Godl Almighty,
Who has made all things well.
All things bright, etc.

READING…………………John 15 v 9-12
