There Is Love
(Wedding Song) Paul Stookey
He is now to be among you
at the calling of your hearts.
Rest assured this troubador
is acting on His part.
The union of your spirits here
has caused Him to remain,
for whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name,
There is love. There is love.
Oh, a man shall leave his mother,
and a woman leave her home.
They will travel on to where the two will be as one.
As it was in the beginning, is now until the end,
woman draws her life from man and gives it back again
and there is love. Oh, there's love.
Well then what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife?
Is it love that brings you here or love that brings you life?
For if loving is the answer then who's the giving for?
Do you believe in something that you've never seen before?
Oh, there's love. There is love.

The union of your spirits here
has caused Him to remain
for whenever two or more of you
are gathered in His name there is love.
Oh, there is love.

dearie and I first heard this song when we went for our EE. It left an impact in us but we have forgotten all about it until Xiu Ping lent us some wedding songs CDs.
Actually, even before XP lent us the CD, I have heard Nelson singing it. He sounded so nice but I thought PF is asking him to sing for her wedding. As I thought no bride would like another bride to copy the same song, I did not ask Nelson. Also, I didn't dare to ask as I thought I might be imposing on him.
Anyway, it is God's plan that He wants us to have this song coz PF told me that Nelson was singing for fun during the choir practice. Ha ha....
When we approaced Nelson to sing for us at the signing (in church), he was more than happy to obliged and agreed that it is God's plan coz he just happened to see that song one day while flipping through his book.
The plan sort of evolved - that we asked Nelson to sing for us for our first entrance on our wedding dinner.
The plan evolved further - Nelson got Clement to help play on keyboard - One song turned into four songs (I think there were more than four songs on the actual day - some chinese. some english). Two persons became four - Steph and Josephine were roped in to sing as well!
Of course, dearie and I were very happy that they are all so willing to sing for us.

The dinner was indeed beautiful. =)

Thank you Lord for making all things possible. (p.s things did not run smoothly at first as we did not have DI Box which the hotel insisted that we must bring along. But God sent his angels thus making all things possible.)
