Denver John

I need help with a John Denver song?

Its a shot in the dark, but My Uncles sang a song at my Grandma and Grandpa's 60th wedding anniversary and I can't think of the name. I know it is John Denver and the one line that I remember is where there is love or where there's love. Also it mentions something about a troubadour. thanks for any help you can give.

1. I'm almost certain I have the song you are looking for, but it isn't by John Denver, it's by Paul Stookey from Peter, Paul and Mary: The Wedding Song (There Is Love) Lyrics (Words and Music by Paul Stookey) He is now to be among you at the calling of your hearts Rest assured this troubadour is acting on His part. The union of your spirits, here, has caused Him to remain for whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name there is Love, there is Love. Well, a man shall leave his mother and a woman leave her home and they shall travel on to where the two shall be as one. As it was in the beginning is now and til the end Woman draws her life from man and gives it back again. And there is Love, there is Love. Well then what's to be the reason for becoming man and wife? Is it love that brings you here or love that brings you life? And if loving is the answer, then who's the giving for? Do you believe in something that you've never seen before? Oh there is Love, there is Love. Oh the marriage of your spirits here has caused Him to remain for whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name there is Love, there is Love.
2. I'm almost 100% sure that the song you're asking about is called "The Wedding Song". I'm not aware that this song was particularly written by John Denver, but I know for sure that it is commonly sung at weddings and anniversaries. Knowing John Denver's style and the type of song this is, it was probably one that he performed often. To verify if this is correct, I'll provide a portion of the lyrics to see if they ring a bell for you (pardon me if I get some of them wrong): He is now to be among you, at the calling of your hearts. Rest assured this troubador is acting on His part. The union (marriage) of your spirits here has caused him to remain, for whenever two or more of you are gathered in His name. (Chorus) There is love.....There is love. I hope this is the right answer! BTW, thanks for bringing back a pleasant memory! I used to sing this song (many years ago) with my mother at weddings all the time. If you need more info., don't hesitate to ask!
