When Love Is Found

Congratulations to daniel and meijun for their wedding over the weekend!!

Attended both the church wedding and the dinner. I must say, church weddings never fail to touch me. There's something so poignant about a couple taking their marriage vows before God and receiving His blessings for their new life ahead.

Their covenant song 'When Love Is Found' was particularly meaningful.

WHEN LOVE IS FOUND
Words by Brian Wren, 1978
Tune: Waly Waly/The Water is Wide

When love is found and hope comes home,
Sing and be glad that two are one.
When love explodes and fills the sky,
Praise God and share our Maker's joy.

When love has flowered in trust and care,
Build both each day, that love may dare
To reach beyond home's warmth and light,
To serve and strive for truth and right.

When love is tried as loved ones change,
Hold still to hope though all seems strange,
Till ease returns, and love grows wise
Through listening ears and opened eyes.

When love is torn and trust betrayed,
Pray strength to love till torments fade
Till lovers keep no score of wrong,
But hear through pain love's Easter song.

Praise God for love, praise God for life,
In age or youth, in husband, wife,
Lift up your hearts, let love be fed
Through death and life in broken bread.
