The Wedding Song - There is Love

I've been thinking about a song that I should post after the Pope's funeral. It was so moving. Well, yesterday, Saturday, while I was blow drying my hair, the perfect song came on the radio. The Wedding Song - There is Love. I remember when the Catholic church first began their more contemporary masses for the young people and I heard this song for the first time played on the guitar. It was during the 70's so I've posted the Captain and Tennille version. Maybe it will bring back some of those memories for you.

Lyrics That Hook Me:
He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts
Rest assured this troubadour 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

Well a man shall leave his mother, and a woman leave her home
They shall travel on to where the two shall be as one
As it was in the beginning and is now until the end
A woman draws her life from man and gives it back again
And there's love, there is love

And then what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife
Is it love that brings you here or love that gives 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

And then what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife
Is it love that brings you here or love that gives 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

Put it on your player:

Wedding Song (There Is Love)
