    WEDDING HYMNS: Ceremony & Celebration features versatile soloist Tobin Wingard on flute, piccolo, Irish whistle, wood flute, soprano and alto recorders, sopranino, & slide whistle. Traditional, Classical, and Contemporary wedding hymns and arrangements are included in this musically diverse offering. Almost any hymn could be sung at your wedding! We've chosen a few of our favorites, some emphasizing celebration by their upbeat and rhythmic arrangement, and others leading more to reflection and moments of quiet worship. A few, such as "O Perfect Love" and "The King Of Love My Shepherd Is" may not be familiar to all listeners, but have been chosen because they seem uniquely appropriate for a wedding ceremony.

O PERFECT LOVE LYRICS: O perfect Love, all human thought transcending, Lowly we kneel in prayer before Thy throne, That theirs may be the love that knows no ending, Whom Thou forevermore dost join in one. O perfect Life, be Thou their full assurance Of tender charity and steadfast faith, Of patient hope, and quiet, brave endurance, With childlike trust that fears nor pain nor death. Grant them the joy which brightens earthly sorrow; Grant them the peace which calms all earthly strife, And to life's day the glorious unknown morrow That dawns upon eternal love and life.

GUIDE ME O THOU GREAT REDEEMER (JEHOVAH) Guide me, O thou great redeemer, Pilgrim through this barren land; I am weak, but thou art mighty, Hold me with thy powerful hand; Bread of heaven, bread of heaven Feed me till I want no more; Feed me till I want no more. Open now the crystal fountain Whence the healing stream doth flow; Let the fire and cloudy pillar Lead me all my journey through: Strong deliverer, strong deliverer; Be thou still my strength and shield; Be thou still my strength and shield. When I tread the verge of Jordan, Bid my anxious fears subside; Death of death, and hell's destruction Land me safe on Canaan's side: Songs of praises, songs of praises, I will ever give to thee; I will ever give to thee. From Wikipedia, this is a translation of the original lyrics: Lord, guide me through the wilderness, A pilgrim weak of aspect, There is neither strength nor life in me, As though lying in the grave, Almighty, It is Thou who shalt take me to that shore. I wandered for long years, And saw not the break of dawn; I despaired, without Thy strength, Ever to leave the desert land; Do Thou grant, The occasion to escape. Give Thou a pillar of fire to lead me in the night, And a pillar of mist in the day, Hold me when I travel places Which are rough on the way, Give me manna, Thus shall I not despair. Open the sweet springs Which gush forth from the rock, All across the great wilderness May a river of healing grace follow: Give this to me Not for me but for Thy sake. When I go through Jordan - Cruel death in its force - Thou Thyself suffered this before, Why shall I fear further? Victory! Let me cry out in the torrent. I shall trust in Thy power, Great is the work that Thou hast always done, Thou conquered death, Thou conquered hell, Thou hast crushed Satan beneath Thy feet, Hill of Calvary, This shall never escape from my memory.

MORNING HAS BROKEN LYRICS: Morning has broken, like the first morning Blackbird has spoken like the first bird Praise for the singing, praise for the morning Praise for them springing fresh from the Word Sweet the rain's new fall sunlit from heaven Like the first dewfall on the first grass Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden Sprung in completeness where His feet pass Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning Born of the one light Eden saw play Praise with elation, praise every morning God's recreation of the new day

Simple Gifts Lyrics: 'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free 'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be And when we find ourselves in the place just right 'Twill be in the valley of love and delight! When true simplicity is gained To bow and bend we shan't be ashamed To turn... turn.... will be our delight Till by turning, turning we come 'round right!

Jesu Joy Of Mans Desiring (Bach) Lyrics by Robert Bridges (not a translation of the original German) Jesu, joy of man's desiring, Holy wisdom, love most bright; Drawn by Thee, our souls aspiring Soar to uncreated light. Word of God, our flesh that fashioned, With the fire of life impassioned, Striving still to truth unknown, Soaring, dying round Thy throne. Through the way where hope is guiding, Hark, what peaceful music rings; Where the flock, in Thee confiding, Drink of joy from deathless springs. Theirs is beauty's fairest pleasure; Theirs is wisdom's holiest treasure. Thou dost ever lead Thine own In the love of joys unknown

The King Of Love My Shepherd Is The King of love my shepherd is Whose goodness faileth never I nothing lack if I am his And He is mine forever Where streams of living water flow My ransomed soul He leadeth And where the verdant pastures grow With food celestial feedeth Perverse and foolish oft I strayed But yet in love He sought me And on his shoulder gently laid And home rejoicing brought me In death’s dark vale I fear no ill With Thee dear Lord beside me Thy rod and staff my comfort still Thy cross before to guide me Thou spread'st a table in my sight Thine unction grace bestoweth And oh, what transport of delight From Thy pure chalice floweth And so through all the length of days Thy goodness faileth never Good Shepherd may I sing Thy praise Within thy house forever

LEAD US HEAVENLY FATHER LEAD US LYRICS: Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us o'er the world's tempestuous sea; guard us, guide us, keep us, feed us, for we have no help but thee; yet possessing every blessing, if our God our Father be. Savior, breathe forgiveness o'er us; all our weakness thou dost know; thou didst tread this earth before us; thou didst feel its keenest woe; yet unfearing, persevering, to thy passion thou didst go. Spirit of our God, descending, fill our hearts with heavenly joy; love with every passion blending pleasure that can never cloy; thus provided, pardoned, guided, nothing can our peace destroy.

COME THOU FOUNT OF EVERY BLESSING LYRICS: 1. Come Thou Fount of every blessing Tune my heart to sing Thy grace; Streams of mercy, never ceasing, Call for songs of loudest praise Teach me some melodious sonnet, Sung by flaming tongues above. Praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it, Mount of God's unchanging love. 2. Here I raise my Ebenezer; Hither by Thy help I'm come; And I hope, by Thy good pleasure, Safely to arrive at home. Jesus sought me when a stranger, Wandering from the fold of God; He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed His precious blood. 3. O to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be! Let that grace now like a fetter, Bind my wandering heart to Thee. Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love; Here's my heart, O take and seal it, Seal it for Thy courts above.

This Is My Father's World LYRICS This is my Father's world, and to my listening ears all nature sings, and round me rings the music of the spheres. This is my Father's world: I rest me in the thought of rocks and trees, of skies and seas; his hand the wonders wrought. 2. This is my Father's world, the birds their carols raise, the morning light, the lily white, declare their maker's praise. This is my Father's world: he shines in all that's fair; in the rustling grass I hear him pass; he speaks to me everywhere. 3. This is my Father's world. O let me ne'er forget that though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the ruler yet. This is my Father's world: why should my heart be sad? The Lord is King; let the heavens ring! God reigns; let the earth be glad!

BE THOU MY VISION LYRICS: Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art Thou my best thought by day or by night Waking or sleeping Thy presence my light Be Thou my wisdom and Thou my true Word I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord Thou my great Father, I , Thy true son Thou in me dwelling and I with Thee one Riches I heed not nor man's empty praise Thou mine inheritance now and always Thou and Thou only first in my heart High King of heaven my treasure Thou art High King of heaven my victory won May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heav'ns Sun Heart of my own heart whatever befall Still be my vision O Ruler of all Be Thou my battle shield, sword for my fight Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight Thou my soul's shelter, Thou my high tower Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power
12.
FAIREST LORD JESUS LYRICS: Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler of all nature, O Thou of God and man the Son, Thee will I cherish, Thee will I honor, Thou, my soul’s glory, joy and crown. Fair are the meadows, fairer still the woodlands, Robed in the blooming garb of spring; Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer, Who makes the woeful heart to sing. Fair is the sunshine, fairer still the moonlight, And all the twinkling starry host; Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer Than all the angels heaven can boast. All fairest beauty, heavenly and earthly, Wondrously, Jesus, is found in Thee; None can be nearer, fairer or dearer, Than Thou, my Savior, art to me. Beautiful Savior! Lord of all the nations! Son of God and Son of Man! Glory and honor, praise, adoration, Now and forever more be Thine.
13.
SIMPLE GIFTS LYRICS: 'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free 'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be And when we find ourselves in the place just right 'Twill be in the valley of love and delight! When true simplicity is gained To bow and bend we shan't be ashamed To turn... turn.... will be our delight Till by turning, turning we come 'round right!
