beloved

i've known this song for a while, but God knew i needed to hear it today. funny how that shuffle feature works on the ipod...

love of My life, look deep in My eyes
there you will find what you need.

give me your life - the lust and the lies,

the past you're afraid I might see.

you've been running away from Me.

you're my beloved and lover I'm yours.
death shall not part us, it's you I died for.

for better or worse, forever we'll be.

My love it unites us and it binds you to me.
it's a mystery.

love of My life, look deep in My eyes,
there you will find what you need.

I'm the Giver of life.

I'll clothe you in white,

My immaculate bride you will be.
oh come running home to me.

you've been a mistress my wife, 
chasing lovers that won't satisfy.

won't you let Me make you My bride?

you will drink of My lips and you'll taste new life.

you're My beloved and lover I'm yours.
death shall not part us - it's you I died for.
for better or worse, forever we'll be.
my love it unites us and it binds you to Me.
it's a mystery.
