Inspiration til kirkeblad på engelsk og dansk

[Leding 1]

Hej ...

Jeg vil hører, om jeg må se jeres kirkehæfter for at få noget inspiration.

Jeg har nemlig tænkt mig, at lave kirkehæfter, da vi har udenlandske gæster med til brylluppet. Er der nogle som har en engelsk oversættelse af vielsesritualerne til kirkehæftet!

På forhånd TUSIND TAK!

[tommie 1]

Hej vi er ved at forberede engelsk dansk bryllup men vores kirke tilbød at oversætte og ligge på hver stol! De havde det alligevel liggende Det meste. Det sagde vi ja tak til så måske din gør samme?!

[Dobbeltbrud 25]

Dobbelt brud! Tusind TAK! Det vil jeg takke ja til! Jeg sender teksten, når jeg kommer hjem fra ferie...

The Marriage Service

A church wedding is solemnized by a pastor in a church in the presence of at least two witnesses.
Prior to the marriage service the church bells may be rung or chimed according to local custom.

OPENING (ORGAN PRELUDE/THE VOLUNTARY)

OPENING HYMN

GREETING
Pastor:
The Lord be with you!
And with your spirit! or: And also with you!

This greeting may be left out or the pastor may say:
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,
and the love of God,
and the fellowship of the Holy Ghost,
be with you all.

INTRODUCTORY PRAYER AND READING
Pastor (standing at the altar or in the chancel):
Lord God, Heavenly Father.
We thank You for giving us life
and for the gift of all the people who have
supported and loved us
from our childhood to this day
We beseech You gracefully
to continue to give us what we need
and every day renew the love we have for each other
through Jesus Christ, our Lord
Who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit,
one true God now and for all eternity.
Amen.

The pastor continues:
It is written:
When God had created heaven and earth, the sea, the sun and the moon, stars, plants and animals, He said: "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. And God blessed them.

And Our Lord Jesus Christ says:
Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ and said, “For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh”? So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.

And the Apostle Paul writes:
Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ. Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive. And above all these put on love, which is the bond of perfection.

HYMN

SPEECH TO BRIDE AND GROOM
The couple may step forward to the altar or wait until after the speech.

EXCHANGE OF VOWS AND PRONOUNCEMENT.
Pastor:
I ask you, (groom’s name):
Will you take (bride’s name) who stands by your side,
to be your wedded wife? – I will!
Will you love her and honour her
and live with her for better or for worse
in whatever fortune God may grant you
as it is fitting that a husband should live with his wife
until death do you part? – I will!

Likewise, I ask you, (bride’s name):
Will you take (groom’s name) who stands by your side,
to be your wedded husband? – I will!
Will you love him and honour him
and live with him for better or for worse
in whatever fortune God may grant you
as it is fitting that a wife should live with her husband
until death do you part? – I will!

Then join your right hands together.

The pastor places a hand on the joined hands of the couple and says:
Since you have given your consent and made your marriage vows to each other, and you have confessed it publicly before the eyes of God and in the presence of this congregation and have confirmed it by the joining of hands I now pronounce you to be husband and wife before God and man.

At this point bride and groom may exchange rings.

INTERCESSION/NUPTIAL BLESSING
Pastor:
Let us pray.
Bride and groom kneel. The pastor places a hand on each head and says:

Almighty God who created man and woman
that they may live together in holy matrimony
and blessed them,
We beseech You:
Bless this bride and groom
Guide them by Your grace always
and let them live in mutual love.

Or
Dear Heavenly Father,
Grant this bride and groom grace, happiness and blessings
in body and soul.
Ensure their steadfast love for one another
that they may serve You faithfully in all their doings
and live as Your precious children
finally to be gathered with You in your eternal mansions.
In the name of Jesus we pray:

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those
who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For Thine is the kingdom,
the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.

Or

(contemporary)
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be Your name,
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread,
Forgive us our sins,
as we forgive those
who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are Yours,
now and forever. Amen.

If the wedding service ends with the ensuing hymn the pastor gives the Benediction to the couple rather than saying: Peace be with you!
Bride and groom return to their seats.

HYMN
If a child is to be baptized in the course of the ceremony, baptism follows immediately after the marriage ceremony and the concluding collect may then be a baptismal collect.

CONCLUDING PRAYER
The pastor says or chants:
Lord God, Heavenly Father,
We thank You for the gift of marriage
and we beseech You
to preserve this ordinance and blessing
to be unshakably in our midst.
Through Your Holy Spirit
enable all Christian couples to help each other
and never lose sight of Your saving grace.
Let them rejoice in hope,
be patient in affliction,
and be constant in prayer
and strengthen them to be members
of Your living church
that they may one day be united with You in Your kingdom
where You live and reign with Your Son and the Holy Spirit,
one true God forever and ever.

Or

Lord, God, Heavenly Father.
We thank You for the gift of marriage
and we beseech You:
Pour out Your grace upon (groom’s name) and (bride’s name),
who have entered into marriage
and grant them Your blessings
that they may be joined in mutual love
and a godly life
and not cause strife and anger
May they always feel Your merciful presence,
also in times of trial,
Let them and all of us live our lives here on earth
faithfully and obediently
until we come to share eternal bliss
through Your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord
who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one true God forever and ever.

All:
Amen.

THE BENEDICTION
The pastor says or chants (facing the congregation):
The Lord be with you!
All:
And with your spirit! or: And also with you!

This greeting may be omitted or be said prior to the closing prayer.

All stand for the Benediction. The pastor says or chants:
The Lord bless you and keep you.
The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious unto you.
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace.
All sing:
Amen, amen, amen

Hvis du ved, hvilke salmer I vil synge, så har jeg en engelsk oversættelse af de omkring 100 mest brugte danske salmer

[Leding 1]

GoldRumble: Vi skal synge: "Nu falmer trindt om land", "Det er så yndigt at følges ad" og "Dejlig er jorden"

[GoldRumble 66]

Dejlig er jorden / Beautiful is the earth

Beautiful is the earth!

Wonderful God´s heaven!

Lovely the path that we walk along!

Souls on the pilgrim way

through earthly kingdoms

we go to Paradise with song.

Ages shall come to be,

ages too shall roll by,

generations succeed the last;

yet shall the heav´nly sound

never fall silent -

the pilgim´s song is unsurpassed.

Angel choirs sang it

first for the shepherds,

full from soul to soul that dawn:
Peace over all the earth!

People, rejoice and sing,

to us is a Redeemer born!

Nu falmer skoven / The forest leaves are fading

The forest leaves are fading fast,

and birdsong now is rarer;

the swallow flees the stormy blast,

the stork seeks climates fairer.

Where fields once waved with golden corn,

fair ears to ripeness straining,

there stubble lies, bereaved, forlorn,

mere barren soil remaining.

But in our barn, upon our floor,

God´s gift for all our sowing,

our enterprise yields up its store

of harvest overflowing.

And He who made it grow on earth,

the golden ears unveiling,

will live with ud and share His Word,

the gosple never-failing.

We thank Him now with joyful song

for all that He has given;

for fields that grew all summer long,

for word and life from heaven.

Through all the year on ev´rytthing

He breathes his peace eternal;

and after winter comes the spring,

then summer, corn and kernel.

And when life´s hour-glass runs dry,

His word to us is spoken:

in Paradise will God on high

grant summer sun unbroken.

There shall we reap as birds do here,

who neither plough nor scatter;

and there be free of toil and fear,

and strife of earthly matters.

For harvest here and harvest there,

to God be praise and glory,

who shows through Christ, our Saviour fair,

the Father´s loving story.

His spirit, who does all thing well,

through life´s whort dats precedes us:

in faith and hope and love we dwell,

as He to heaven leads us.

DET ER SÅ YNDIGT AT FØLGES AD

It is delightful to share a road

when two have chosen to stay together:

the joy is double when light the load,

and storms are but half as hard to weather.

Yes, it is merry for two to carry,

for two to carry

their plumage, very,

sustained by love,

sustained by love.

It is enjoyable everywhere

when two their wills have in one united;

and what will carry the larger share

is love that deep in the heart is sited.

It is a pleasure

to be a treasure,

to be a treasure

in heartfelt measure

of unity,

of unity.

It is so wonderful to obey

the Lord who governs all mighty nations.

He won’t forget us when we are grey;

His mercy covers all generations.

It’s joy forever

that they will never,

that they will never

desert us, never,

the Words of God!

the Words of God!

To part brings sorrow to loving hearts

when two have chosen to stay together.

But praise the Lord as He hope imparts:

in Paradise they shall see each other.

It’s joy agreeing

and keep on being,

and keep on being

like two who’re seeing

that life is love,

that life is love.

Each married couple who lovingly

in Jesus’ name celebrate their wedding,

through happy times and adversity

will find that day and night they are getting

the message clearly

that they have really,

that they have really

their hearth-flamedearly

surpassed with love,

surpassed with love.

[GoldRumble 66]

Det er så yndigt at følges ad / How sweet to travel the road ahead

How sweet to travel the road ahead

for two desiring to be together,

for joy is doubled when we are wed,

and sorrow´s stormwinds much lighter to weather.

How sweetly valid

:/: to travel married :/:

when we are carried

:/: on wings of love. :/:

How great the comfort is here bestowed

when two as one are secure united;

and that which carries the heaviest load

is love´s heart-flame in tow hearts ignited:
as one together

:/: that none shall sever :/:

with yes forever

:/: from heart to heart. :/:

How wonderful to entrust our love

to God in this our celebration,

whose boundless mercy flows from above

to this and to ev´ry generation.

In grateful pleasure

:/: we cannot measure :/:

how great the treasure

:/: of God´s good grace. :/:

When two at length must then parted bed,

how sad the days are of grief and sighing;

but God be praised for the pledge that He

prepares a country for love undying.

How great the pleasure

:/: beyond all measure :/:

the greatest treasure

:/: is endless love. :/:

Each married couple whose love is blessed

in Jesus´ name at their festive wedding,

through all this life´s ebb and flow may rest

in Him, as wider His love is spreading.

He will inspire

:/: their heart´s desire :/:

to share the fire

:/: of love, true love. :/:

Hil dig frelser og forsoner
