Poetry
God in love reached out to us,
Asked us to be His bride,
When we in sin were still immersed
Nor to His laws complied.
And yet He showed His love for us
By sending His dear Son,
He paid the dowry price, you see,
The union was begun.
He waited for us patiently
His offer to accept,
For His attentions He'll not force,
And His vows always kept.
He woos us with a passion
We're foolish to ignore,
He offers love and faithfulness,
His blessings on us pour.
He knows us so completely,
He knows our every need,
And gives us all He is and owns
That we in life succeed.
He takes our rags of filth and grime
And clothes us in pure white,
He carries us within His arms
From darkness into light.
He wants His bride to love Him,
Our passion's His desire,
And even this we can't create,
His Spirit must inspire.
And once this union is complete
He never will divorce,
For as we seek Him faithfully
He'll finish out the course.
