Wishes For Newly Weds
Best wishes for you two with blessings’ glow
poured by God with His generous supply
midst love’s kindness in serenity bliss.
With your “I do” bond to live like one flesh*
inside the Lord’s goodness together dwell
exercising kindness for such to thrive.
Upon Christ’s mighty fortress you reside
building home with His presence and power
since His upholding protects from storm blows.
Nurturing both souls beyond couple’s vow
keep esteeming your spouse with fervent respect
exemplifying gentle forgiveness.
Conscious of stress, bringing distress pain
help yourselves to cope, smiting pressure sting
just cling to your grips, tied by God’s promise.
Be blest by the touch of the Sovereign
recognizing His precious endowments
surely they are gifts to cherish indeed.
Now, go with the Providence-direction
multiplying yourselves with children’s kids
nourished by victorious truth, mercy, hope..
*Matthew 19:6 Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
