Two people once so far away
Come together on a special day,
A day filled with joy and love,
A day blessed by God above.
A woman of character and chastity.
A man of integrity and loyalty,
Come to make a promise for life
To be joined as man and wife.
Before their maker they stand
As they take each other s hand.
They commit their love and devotion
To set a new life as one in motion.
A covenantial prayer to God is said
And the man and woman are wed.
Where once two people stood apart
Are now one, joined together at the heart.

I'd be honored. I have given this as a gift to brides and grooms. I've sold it as a gift plaque in Christian Bookstores.

This is so beautiful and I am sure your brother and his wife feel honored you wrote this for them. There is nothing more beautiful than when two people come together to pledge and divote their love to one another before God.
