My Wedding Day of Hallowed Rest

My wedding day of hallowed rest. My Lord —
not too soon nor too late. My eyes looked up

and danced as He descended and I rose.
Oh look! I smile! O gentle son of God.

The praise of lifted hands - the joy of church.
Forth jubilee good angels longed to see.

The day is here! Clean cut - our groom has come
and we rejoice above the earth so far

from grace. How long despairing chins of hate.
But we adore the groom — we are his bride!
