Be our chief guest, Lord (To the tune Morning has broken)

Be our chief guest, Lord,

Lord of all living,

Lord of all loving,

This wedding day:

Bind us together

In your sure keeping,

So we may never

Wander away.

Bless all who have brought us

Up from our childhood,

Caring, forgiving,

Through the long day:

May the same spirit

Shine in our home, Lord,

Lighting our pathway,

We humbly pray.

Bless all our friends, Lord,

Happy and true friends,

Laughing or crying,

Always the same:

Bright with this friendship,

May our own home be

Ready to welcome

All in your name.

Be our chief guest, Lord,

Lord of all living,

Warm with compassion

Showing the way:

Keep us together

In loving service,

Families and friends, Lord,

This wedding day.
