Almighty God, our heavenly Father, source of all life and love: Bestow thy rich and effectual blessing upon these thy servants who have covenanted before thee to dwell together as husband and wife. Unite their hearts in true sympathy and love, that they may keep their vows, and live together in holy peace; bestow thy blessing upon the home in which they dwell, that it may be a place of true affection, pure religion, and consecrated joy; and bring them at the last to that heavenly home where love and joy are perfect; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
