The Eyes of the World are Upon You

 

The eyes of the world are upon you

This day you say I do.

Your marriage anointed by heaven

With grace to be faithful and true.

 

I trust that your faith and your courage

Strengthened by God and His Church

Will shine like a beacon illuming

The way for others who search.

 

Your task is not for the weakling,

Nor those who recoil from pain.

The foe that you face is quite cunning,

And he’ll fight for your souls to attain.

 

The hopes and the prayers of your loved ones

March with you supporting the cause

Of bonds unbroken and holy

Despite of our humanly flaws.

 

May the blessings of God be upon you

A union of fruitful embrace

Your family both happy and healthy,

And filled with abundance of grace.

 

Now I trust your devotion to duty,

And your skill in the battle at hand

Will bring a glorious victory

To a brand new Hennessey clan.
