The Marriage Vows
Chappell’s Hill church was beautifully set,
For a special occasion, I’|l pwtfQingefrv
It was-We wedding day fOrWlter
Jackie Bass was the fortunate man.
Yes I’ve known Dianne all her life,
I am positive she made a wonderful wife.
I can recall when Dianne was a little girl,
Her hair was a cluster of golden curls.
She grew up, went out in life,
Now she’s no longer a girl but a wife.
The wedding was carried out beautiful, you see,
The bridesmaids dresses were red as could be.
I watched Dianne grow up from week to week,
She was a sincere girl, I really think.
When the church doors were open Dianne was there.
Always smiling, did not seem to have a care.
Dianne was the baby of the family, though,
She was a wonderful mother you know.
Yes she was raised up with a tender hand,
We realize now she has the protection of a man.
Best regards go out to Jackie and Dianne,
We know that marriage is God’s own plan.
Now they will establish their own home,
They are joined together never more to roam.
Yes she will be greatly missed by us all,
She’ll not be at church to anwer her call
Dianne is truly married, this we understand,
God created woman as a companion for man.

Prayer is a definite act of
the mind, a gesture by
which the human spirit
seeks out the spirit of the
universe. In prayer you call
upon the Infinite to help.
Prayer is foreless a thing
“ask for” and it is a thing
“done” a reaching forth to
link one-self to the source of
celestial power.
We invite you to worship
with us this Sunday as we
reach forth to link ourselves
with that power in a friendly
Church where everybody is
somebody and Christ is Lord
of all and the freedom of
worship is yours.
