The 20 Years Wedding Prayer

The Wedding Prayer

Your hand I hold,
your ring I place,
our future dreams to unfold.

I see you there,
all gowned in white,
our union we will share.

I pray my Lord,
this bond we hold,
will keep until we get old.

Past chapel fair,
past garden grounds,
our marriage we declare.

And if in sickness,
we cannot be as one,
being by each other’s side,

we preseve our love,
cherishing memories,
and to each other still abide.

Amen! I assume congratulations would be in order, Martin. A very sweet prayer/poem.
