and watch over the woman
who will be my wife, wherever she is
surround her with good people
who will not harm her
give her comfort in moments of sadness
until my arms can do the same
clothe her with peace
until she can hear my voice
and if she be pricked by the ebon briar
of darkness, then light her path toward me
and give me enough days and
strength of step to cross her path
then may I speak words with depth
that cause her to see who You created
