Paul Stookey Wedding Song (There Is Love) lyrics

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, is now until the end
Woman draws her life from man and gives it back again

And there is love
There is love


Well, then what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife?
Is it love that brings you here or love that bring 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 is love
Oh, there is love

Oh, the marriage 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
