The second video is the O'Neill Brothers piano & instrumental arrangement & features no accompanying lyrics.
One more benefit: It's one of those "it's not long" songs! And if a vocalist is performing it, you can choose the number of verses sung. After listening to & reading the lyrics, you'll find that it is suitable for a unity candle song & also is an ideal Christian wedding hymn. When Love Is Found is a gently flowing piece which an old English melody was paired with the Biblical text from 1 Corinthians 13 & is also known as The Gift Of Love. When Love Is Found (aka The Gift Of Love) However, also notice that even though the couple completed the unity sand ceremony in a leisurely fashion, they were already done around the song's 2 minute mark with another 2 minutes yet to go.Īs I mention in the Tip Box, things can get a bit awkward. Here's a real-life version of this song being performed by a vocal duet as the bridal couple performs the unity sand ceremony to these appropriate lyrics. Again, this Christian song has lyrics that lend themselves very nicely as a unity candle song. And it has an added bonus: a relatively short length!Ī little bit long, but can be shortened by selecting the verse(s) you want. This gentle Christian song has beautifully appropriate lyrics for the occasion. Make of our hands, one hand./Make of our hearts, one heart./Make of our vows one last vow./Only death will part us now./ Make of our lives, one life./Day after day, one life./Now we begin, now we start./One hand, one heart./Even death won't part us now.Ī contemporary Christian song from John Waller, the length is a bit long but see for yourself if it would suit you. In particular, it's not real lengthy & particularly lends itself nicely to a vocalist because of the lyrics: Carefully read them as they are sung and you'll see that they are ideal for the occasion.Įven though written long ago, this song from the musical West Side Story continues to be used, be it as a unity candle song or as part of the wedding prelude songs. Out of all the songs in a Christian hymnbook, this is probably one of the most commonly used songs as a wedding hymn for a couple of reasons, one being that it is not long & secondly, its lyrics. At only about 2 minutes from start to finish, this song can also boast brevity! And again, the song can be shortened.Ī contemporary song, the theme of the song can be summed up by a lyric line from the song that declares "In unity, in the light of love, we are one." Definitely excellent words for the occasion. Recorded by CeCe & BeBe Wynans, this song also has lyrics that "work". Because of the lyrics, it is an excellent choice for a vocalist (and not all verses have to be performed).Ī contemporary song by Ryann Darling, the lyrics make it very appropriate for the moment. Recorded by Steve Green years ago, this is another strongly Christian song that is perfect as a unity candle song. This song from T Carter Music could suit you, especially if you are looking for a piece from the country music genre & has a religious component. This particular arrangement has a nice flow to it giving it a more "dressed up" sound than an arrangement straight from a hymn book.Ī Christian hymn, this is fine for a candle or sand ceremony, and is short-great for a quick ceremony! If only played through once, it is fairly short which can help the flow, but can easily be repeated if more time is needed. If your's is a Christian wedding, it's hard to go wrong with Amazing Grace no matter where in the wedding it's used. Meaning that many are also suitable for other parts of the wedding ceremony such as before or after readings, after the vows are exchanged, after a prayer, and during communion.Īnd beyond that, many are excellent in a wedding prelude as well.Īs always, keep in mind that while the following songs qualify nicely for unity candle songs, many are also suitable for other parts of the wedding ceremony such as before or after readings, after the vows are exchanged, after a prayer, and during communion. Sand can be a nice alternative to candles.especially outdoors!Īs always, keep in mind that many of these songs are "multi-talented"!
