God’s Perfect Pair

Please, Holy Family, intercede
     For us alive below:
For husbands, wives our Savior bleeds
     In Sacrament they know.

What God has joined we dare not part
     At peril of our souls;
In Sacrament, our Lord imparts
     Himself to make us whole.

For families will together be
     In heaven perfect made,
Where our true selves we will all see
     And marriage never fades,

For husband, wife are joined as one–
     No man can sunder here.
By Him their one life has been won;
     They’ll be God’s perfect pair.
