Proposal

Oh how the King has loved you

your beauty is rare

                and your fealty unsurpassed

let us traverse the garden meadows

in the mountains along the foraged trails

alongside the thickets into the redwood groves

I will call you to my side

there always to be present with me

the bride price was costly , a kings ransom

but I have redeemed you for myself

no others shall have you , I have made you mine

I have loved you with an everlasting love

with the promise I have given you

that your confidence may rest in my word

none in a thousand , one in tens of thousands

but you are beyond price, inestimable your value

have been foreordained to be for me

hand chosen by my own father

Where justice has met compassion

power has betrothed meekness

wisdom has married foresight

and love gives birth to truth

will that these qualities multiply

for these are the virtues

that will be the healing of the nations

All that is mine , my gifts for you

born of a love incomparable

even as my father has given me

I will make your joy full

and grant the desires of your heart

though you have been terrified

you shall rest in my security forever

remain on the watch

for I will show you

the things that yet must come to pass

for I watch over you 

will shield you and guide

you into all the truth

amen , come Lord Jesus
