This ring is a special symbol of the promise that I've made. With your help , O Lord, I know, its
glow will never fade. With your help, Lord, I'll stand firm, though some may criticize. For whose opinion matters, if I look
good in Your eyes? Who can give me anything to take the place of You? Who on earth can justify a love that isn't true? So,
I make my statement, on my hand and in my heart. I know, one day, I'll hear You say I chose the better part. The world calls
this old fashioned; still I'll wait-it's just a while.For Honor, Truth, and Faithfulness are never out of style. ----------------------------------------------------------- My
Pledge,
With confidence in His power to strengthen me, I make a promise this day to God, my family, myself, my future
spouse and my future children; to remain sexually pure until the day I give myself as a wedding gift to my spouse.I know that
God requires this of me, that He loves me, and that He will reward me for my faithfulness, in this life, and in the next.

Marriage Takes Three
Beth Stuckwisch
Marriage takes three to be complete:
It's not enough for two to meet.
They must be united in love
By love's creator. God above.
Then their love will be firm and strong:
Able to last when things go wrong.
Because they've felt God's love and know
He's always there. He'll never go.
And they both have loved him in kind
With all their heart and soul and mind.
And in that loev they've found the way
To love each other every day.
A marriage that follows God's plan
Takes more than a woman and a man.
It needs a oneness that can be
Only from Christ--
Marriage takes three.
