I cannot find a recording that is publicly available
God created us in his own image;
in the image of God he created us;
male and female he created us.
The love of man and woman is made holy
in the sacrament of Christian marriage,
and becomes the mirror
of the everlasting love of God,
alleluia.
Words from Genesis 1, 27 and from the Preface for Marriage
