Come to a wedding, come to a blessing
Author: Shirley Erena Murray (b. 1931) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #344 (2013) Meter: 5.5.5.4 D Topics: Family and Friends Lyrics: 1 Come to a wedding, come to a blessing,
come on a day when happiness sings!
Come rain or sun, come winter or summer,
celebrate love and all that it brings.
2 Thanks for the love that holds us together —
parent and child, and lover and friend:
thanks to the God whose love is our centre,
source of compassion, knowing no end.
3 Love is the gift, and love is the giver,
love is the gold that makes the day shine,
love forgets self to care for the other,
love changes life from water to wine.
4 Come to this wedding, asking a blessing
for all the years that living will prove:
health of the body, health of the spirit —
now to you both, we offer our love. Scripture: Song of Solomon 8:6-7 Languages: English Tune Title: BUNESSAN

O Christ, the Healer, we have come
Author: Fred Pratt Green (1903-2000) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #518 (2013) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Family and Friends Lyrics: 1 O Christ, the Healer, we have come
to pray for health, to plead for friends.
How can we fail to be restored,
when reached by love that never ends?
2 From every ailment flesh endures
our bodies clamour to be freed;
yet in our hearts we would confess
that wholeness is our deepest need.
3 How strong, O Lord, are our desires,
how weak our knowledge of ourselves!
Release in us those healing truths
unconscious pride resists or shelves.
4 In conflicts that destroy our health
we diagnose the world's disease;
our common life declares our ills:
is there no cure, O Christ, for these?
5 Grant that we all, made one in faith,
in your community may find
the wholeness that, enriching us,
shall reach the whole of humankind. Scripture: Mark 1:21-34 Languages: English Tune Title: BOW BRICKHILL
O Christ, the Healer, we have come

and like a treasure hold it,
protect it like a candle-flame,
with tenderness enfold it.

with loving expectation;
be gentle in your words and ways,
in touch with God's creation.
3 Put peace into each other's hands
like bread we break for sharing;
look people warmly in the eye:
our life is meant for caring.
4 Give thanks for strong — yet tender — hands,
held out in trust and blessing.
Where words fall short, let hands speak out,
the heights of love expressing.
5 Reach out in friendship, stay with faith
in touch with those around you.

the Peace that sought and found you. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 Languages: English Tune Title: ST COLUMBA (ERIN)
