Lyrics:

Anthony and Maria,
Have you come here freely and without reservation
to give yourselves to each other in marriage?

Yes.

Will you love and honor each other as man and wife for the rest of your lives?

Yes.

Will you accept children lovingly from God
and bring them up according to the law of Christ and His Church?

Yes.

Since it is your intention to enter into marriage,
join your right hand and declare your consent before God and his Church.

I, Anthony,
Take you, Maria, to be my wife.
I promise to be true to you
In good times and in bad
In sickness and in health,

I will love you and honor you
All the days of my life.

If any man has a mind to come my way,
Let him renounce himself,
Take up his Cross
And follow me

The heart has its cycles
As well as the planets
And the movement of the heart
Is an upward spiral
And not a circle
Which turns in upon itself

The crisis of nothingness
Which follows a dream come true,
Needs its purification and its cross

And the cross is not a roadblock
On the way to happiness
It is a ladder up which one climbs
To the very heaven of Love itself.
