With grateful hearts and tuneful lays,
We bow before th' Eternal throne,
And offer up our humble praise,
To him whose name is God alone.
On this auspicious eve, draw near.
And shed thy richest blessings down;
Fill ev'ry heart with love sincere,
And all thy faithful mercies crown.
Grant now thy presence, gracious Lord.
And hearken to our fervent pray'r;
The nuptial vow in heav'n record.
And bless the newly married pair.
Oh, guide them safe, this desert through.
Mid all the cares of life and love;
At length with joy thy face to view,
In fairer, better worlds above.
