ElIen's Wedding Day.
June her sunshine is shedding,
Flowers bloom, the earth is fair,
'Tis the day OF Elen's wedding,
Joy is reigning everywhere.
Fill the air with gladstone music,
Let all faces beam with smiles
Maidens, trail your festal garments
Down her happy bridal aisles.
GE
Loving hands adorn her bowers,
Willing feet attend her there;
Pour forth blessings in sweet showers,
Oh, thou holy man of prayer
Spirits Of her absent loved ones
Hover round her close today;
Breathing peace upon her bridal,
Luring happiness her way.
Bridegroom at the altar waiting,
Crowned before the world her choice;
Soon his lifelong love will pledge her,
In exultant, manly voice.
Bless the day and bless the union,
Bless the happy twain made one,
In its richest, fullest meaning,
Life for them has just begun.
