| 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 |
