Author: Daniel Charles Damon, 1955- Hymnal: Community of Christ Sings #542 (2013) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 True union is a gift of God
blessed with a sacred vow;
two lovers joined as one in God's
eternal loving now.
2 The love of God made visible
in human love this day;
two lives now indivisible;
the potter's molded clay.
3 We do not know what life will bring,
the sorrows may be great;
surprised by joys too quickly gone,
yet we will pray and wait.
4 We struggle for a partnership
of mutual delight,
enjoying the companionship
by day as well as night.
5 Rejoice, dear friends, with us this day,
for earth and heav'n agree;
together knit, forever stay;
true union this will be.
