The Marriage Prayer

Groom
Father, I said till death do us part
I want to mean it with all of my heart
Help me to love You more than I love her
Then I know I can love her more than anyone else

And bring her in Your presence today
Make her what You want her to be

I pray to hear her heart
I pray she'll love You more
I pray to cherish and serve her
And we'll bring You glory today
I pray

Bride
Father, I said till death do us part
I want to mean it with all of my heart
Help me to love You more than I love him
Then I know I can love him more than anyone else

And bring him in Your presence today
Make him what You want him to be

I pray to hear his heart
I pray he'll love You more
I pray to cherish and serve him
And we'll bring You glory today
I pray

Groom
Lord, help me love her as You love the church, your bride

Bride
Help me submit to him as I submit to You, my life


Groom and Bride
This is our prayer
Amen
