Thou God, whose high, eternal Love <br /> Is the only blue sky of our life, <br />Clear all the Heaven that bends above <br /> The life-road of this man and wife. <br /> <br />May these two lives be but one note <br /> In the world's strange-sounding harmony, <br />Whose sacred music e'er shall float <br /> Through every discord up to Thee. <br /> <br />As when from separate stars two beams <br /> Unite to form one tender ray: <br />As when two sweet but shadowy dreams <br /> Explain each other in the day: <br /> <br />So may these two dear hearts one light <br /> Emit, and each interpret each. <br />Let an angel come and dwell to-night <br /> In this dear double-heart, and teach!<br /><br />Sidney Lanier<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/wedding-hymn/
