The lights go down and the words appear |
|
I close my eyes and you are there |
No one else just Lover and Beloved
|
|
I sing to you, the words are like seeds
|
That spring to life in your presence |
Your Spirit joins mine in a mix of grace and peace
|
|
The two of us now one, if only for a moment
|
A foreshadow of the heavenly bliss yet to be |
|
I see you in all your beauty, soaking in my praise |
Like a proud parent watching a performing child
|
|
A sight of perfect acceptance and love |
Let the world be as though it never was
|
|
Only let this moment never end
|
For I am in the arms of my lover |
If I was never loved, I am now |
|
For you chose to spend this time with me
|
Words move me to tears
|
|
As I struggle to convey my need for you |
For you are my all
|
|
Without whom there would be no reason to sing
|
No reason to close my eyes
|
|
No one to love
|
No love to give |
I raise my hand and bow my head in humble ecstasy
|
|
Not because I should |
Not because I’m told |
|
But because I must |
For that is who I am |
|
The way I was created
|
To love and worship you |
|
My God, my Savior, my Lover |
I praise Thee |
