The Wedding Song - Paul Stookey

He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts.
Rest assured this troubadour is acting on His part.
The union of your spirits here has caused Him to remain,
For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name,

There is love, there is love.

Well, a man shall leave his mother and a woman leave her home.
They shall travel on to where the two shall be as one.
As it was in the beginning, is now and till the end.
Woman draws her life from man and gives it back again.

And there is love, there is love.

Then, what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife?
Is it love that brings you here or love that gives you
life? For if loving is the answer, then who's the giving for?
Do you believe in something that you've never seen before?

Well, there's love, there is love.

The marriage of your spirits here has caused Him to remain,
For whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name,

There is love, there is love.

In case you haven't noticed, the reason for this thread is that the lyrics in the DT are incomplete.
