O Precious Gift of God
Beloved and Divine,
By Thee we have have been blest
Each other now to find.
That lacking in our Lives
For each other supplied,
We see Thy Providence
Which brings us side by side
To live our Lives as One
And thus fill out our Days,
O Precious Gift of God
Beloved in every way!


How Matchless is Thy Love
You've given us to see,
And showed how to Love
The way that it should be.
You've put within our Hearts
A Dear sweet Melody,
We sing it to Thy Praise
With Lives in Harmony!
To Wedded Bliss we've come
And all that lies in store,
We Thank Thee Gracious God
And Praise Thee Evermore!

A-men!


(Lord-willing, we intend to sing this
together at our wedding scheduled for
December 29th, 2006)
Please Be Happy for Us!!!!

An inside note:
[The words used in the first verse are reflective of what our names MEAN, thus, JANE="Gift of God", and DAVID="Beloved". So I have incorporated into this song, a special connection of this Hymn of Thanksgiving to ourselves-adding to it's meaning for us.]
