Original text and translations
English text
- 1.
- The voice that breathed o’er Eden,
- that earliest wedding day,
- The primal wedding blessing,
- it hath not passed away.
- 2.
- Still in the pure espousal
- of Christian man and maid
- The Holy Three are with us,
- the threefold grace is said.
- 3.
- For dower of blessèd children,
- For love and faith’s sweet sake,
- For high mysterious union
- Which naught on earth may break.
- 4.
- Be present, awful Father,
- to give away this bride
- As Thou gav’st Eve to Adam,
- a helpmate at his side.
- 5.
- Be present, Son of Mary,
- to join their loving hands
- As Thou didst bind two natures
- in Thine eternal bands.
- 6.
- Be present, Holy Spirit,
- to bless them as they kneel,
- As Thou for Christ, the Bridegroom,
- the heav’nly Spouse dost seal.
- 7.
- O spread Thy pure wing o’er them,
- let no ill power find place
- When onward to Thine altar
- their hallowed path they trace.
- 8.
- To cast their crowns before Thee
- in perfect sacrifice,
- Till to the home of gladness
- with Christ’s own Bride they rise.
- 9.
- To Father, Son, and Spirit,
- eternal One and Three,
- And was and is forever,
- all praise and glory be.
Lyrics: John Keble, 1857.
