For Love's delight and pleasure, O Lord, we magnify Thee;
For gladness without measure, O Christ, we glorify Thee.
Our future pathway brighten; of harms and hurts that frighten -
Of danger, us enlighten - Of wrong that may defy Thee.

These two, O Lord, do Thou view; They both their troth have plighted -
Are joined in one, as thou too, Art with Thy Church united.
Through all life's toil and trailing, When young - when frail and failing -
Thy gracious aid availing, Their love be well required.
