SCRIPTURES from the Bible for the wedding

This is what we read from the Bible for our son and daughter-in-law at their wedding,

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. (Psalm 诗118:24)
这是耶和华所定的日子,我们在其中要高兴欢喜。
God is love. (1John 4:8b)
神就是爱。
Love is patient; love is kind;
爱是恒久忍耐,又有恩慈。
Love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude.
爱是不嫉妒,不自夸,不张狂;不做害羞的事,
It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
不求自己的益处,不轻易发怒,不计算人的恶;
It does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth.
不喜欢不义,只喜欢真理。
It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
凡事包容,凡事相信,凡事盼望,凡事忍耐。
Love never ends. (I Corinthians 13:4-8)
爱是永不止息。
Let us love one another, for love is from God. (1 John 4:7a)
我们应当彼此相爱,因为爱是从神那里来的。
God’s Word says this:
“You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. “
神的话这么说: 「你要尽心、尽性、尽力爱耶和华─你的神。」
“You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.” (Deuteronomy 申命记 6:5-8)
「也要殷勤教训你的儿女。无论你坐在家里,行在路上,躺下,起来,都要谈论。」
…the steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children’s children, to those who keep his covenant and remember to do his commandments. (Psalms103:17-18)
…耶和华的慈爱归於敬畏他的人,从亘古到永远;他的公义也归於子子孙孙, 就是那些遵守他的约、记念他的训词而遵行的人。

WEDDING SONGS_lyrics

These are the lyrics to the songs sung at the church wedding.

This is the day (A Wedding Song)

This is the day that the Lord hath made
And I’m so glad He made you
With each rising sun you are here by my side
You are more than a dream come true

Oh, to have you, to hold you to love you, to pray
To share with, to care with to hold hands and say
This is the day that the Lord hath made
And I will rejoice, I will rejoice
I will rejoice with you

This is the love that the Lord hath made
You and I, we are one
Love's mystery is unfolding today
Written for us in the sun

Oh, for better, for worse for rich or for poor
Each day that passes I love you more
Cause this is the day that the Lord hath made
And I will rejoice, I will rejoice
I will rejoice with you

This is the day…..4x


Bind Us Together Lord

BIND US TOGETHER, Lord, Bind us together
With cords that cannot be broken.
Bind us together, Lord,
Bind us together,
Bind us together with love.

There is only one God,
There is only one King;
There is only one Body,
That is why we sing:

Made for the glory of God,
Purchased by His precious Son;
Born with the right to be clean,
For Jesus the victory has won.

You are the family of God,
You are the promise divine;
You are God’s chosen desire,
You are the glorious new wine.


It Takes Three

I can’t believe God placed you in my life
Baby it’s a dream, to hold you close, to know that you are mine
I never thought, I’d meet a friend like you

What you mean to me, I’m learning more, that words will never do
So I’m gonna show you with my life how much you mean to me\
But I could never do without the One who made us both see

It takes three, to make a marriage work, to reveal, what only God can do
It takes three to see the Father’s love revealed in us

Just the two, could never be enough
And although we’re committed when times get tough
We still need the One who’s faithful and so true
I know it takes (I know it takes)
Me, Jesus and you!

It’s hard to understand why people say –
"Just give them a couple of years….They’ll settle down, their love will fade away.”
I pray that they would come to know this love…

It’s not just what we feel, It’s a precious gift, It’s sent from up above
So with Christ the love grows more and more until the final day
So with our love we celebrate the One Who gave His life away

It takes three, to make a marriage work, to reveal, what only God can do
It takes three to see the Father’s love revealed in us

Just the two, could never be enough
And although we’re committed when times get tough
We still need the One who’s faithful and so true
I know it takes (I know it takes)
Me, Jesus and you!

I know baby when we say forever (forever)
It’s gonna be forever Cause we’re not here to try this out
We’re gonna to press on through beyond a shadow of a doubt

We’ve based our lives upon the love of Jesus Christ
So we simply recognize the truth and give the Lord our lives

It takes three, to make a marriage work, to reveal, what only God can do
It takes three to see the Father’s love revealed in us

Just the two, could never be enough
And although we’re committed when times get tough
We still need the One who’s faithful and so true
I know it takes (I know it takes)
Me, Jesus and you!

(We’re gonna share our lives together) Me, Jesus and you!
(We’re gonna walk in the light of the Father) Me, Jesus and you!
Oh, Me, Jesus and you!


Thank You Lord  by Don Moen


I come before you today
And there's just one thing that I want to say
Thank you lord, Thank you lord

For all you've given to me
For all the blessings that I cannot see
Thank you lord, Thank you lord

**With a grateful heart, With a song of praise
With an outstretch arm, I will bless your name

Thank you lord, I just wanna thank you lord
Thank you lord, I just wanna thank you lord
Thank you lord

For all you've done in my life
You took my darkness and gave me your light
Thank you lord, Thank you lord

You took my sin and my shame
You took my sickness and healed all my pain
Thank you lord, Thank you lord

**With a grateful heart, With a song of praise
With an outstretch arm, I will bless your name

Thank you lord, I just wanna thank you lord
Thank you lord, I just wanna thank you lord
Thank you lord
