A Prayer for Marriage
O Lord God, grant that between us there may reign a perpetual holy rivalry toward a life perfectly Christian, by virtue of which there may shine forth more and more clearly the Divine image of Your mystic union with Your Holy Church, as You have deigned to imprint it upon us on the auspicious day of our being made one. Grant, we beseech You, that our good example of Christian living may serve as a powerful inspiration to our children; and finally, after this exile may we ascend into heaven, where by the help of Your grace, we may merit to be joined with our children forever.
Amen.
