The Meaning of This Wedding Ring - My Song For Vonnie - by Bob Frengel
Inspired from Cursillo Couple’s Return reflections on what that wedding ring we wear means to us.
So for me, what I could see was because of the love of my wife Vonnie
What is the meaning of this wedding ring
Together facing all that life will bring
Circle Unending, a symbol of love
Is made complete when God joins from above
His Holy Spirit joins us as we pray
Strengthening our love as we walk each day
No longer You or Me, we’re Christ’s cord of 3
Growing in our Love through His Trinity
Two become One and much stronger are we
When God unites and we follow His lead
Covenant with God, our bond makes our life
A Living Sacrament, Husband and Wife
While on this journey we will sacrifice
Some of our own will, to reach this great prize
It comes down to us, the choices we make
If we keep His Love, our bond will not break
What is the Blessing that God gives to us
Standing before Him, professing our love
His very Presence, a glimpse of His Light
Walking beside us, this love in our life
Two become One and much stronger are we
When God unites and we follow His lead
Covenant with God, our bond makes our life
A Living Sacrament, Husband and Wife
How can we fathom now, this solemn vow
Somehow fulfill it, God only knows how
Become foundation, a true living stone
Growing in our love, till we reach our home
His Pearl of Great Price is within our reach
When we see His Grace, God gives us through each
Learning from each other that’s how we build
United we achieve what God has willed
Two become One and much stronger are we
When Christ unites and we follow His lead
Covenant with God, our bond makes our life
We’re Living Sacrament, Husband and Wife
Note: Can be sung to the tune of "Be Thou my Vision", with some adjustment. (10 10 10 10)
With God's providence, will try to record this one day for Vonnie
