Songs for the Church Wedding Ceremony

I Will Be Here: Sang by Steven Curtis Chapman, this beautiful song is a reassurance for the bride that her husband will be with her through both good and bad times. The song has some beautiful lyrics like “If in the dark we lose sight of love, hold my hand and have no fear.”

For You: Another popular number, For You by Michael Smith is similar to Chapman’s I Will Be Here. The number can be comforting for the bride and reinforce that her partner will always stand by her.

Household of Faith: Steven Green’s popular number represents how a couple builds a household of faith together. Lyrics like “Now to be a family we’ve got to love each other at any cost unselfishly” remind the couple and the audience about the role of faith and selflessness in building a strong family.

Other popular church wedding songs include Avalon’s By Heart, By Soul and I Can Only Imagine by Mercy Me.

God Bless the Broken Road: This number by Rascal Flatts shows how God planned the meeting of the couple and how they found each other. Lyrics like “You’ve been there you understand, it’s all part of the grander plan that’s coming true” can be a very good reminder of God’s plan.

With Arms Wide Open: This emotional song by Creed nicely captures a man’s feelings on the wedding day. The part “Well I don’t know if I’m ready to be the man I have to be” catches the imagination of both the groom and other male members of the audience.
