Oath

What you say to us       you always do

when you promised           I          will come for you

you went away       to prepare our home

in the heart of us        there seats your throne

 

I love you , I love you ,               with a love that is true

our Father has shown us            its command how to do

its expression of joy                I have found in you

as you are forming in              us                 a creation new

 

but we must grow together          if we want it to Live

encourage kindness       and            shortcomings forgive

dedicated to Truth                        subjecting our Will

the Grand Commandment         must seek to fulfill

 

I lift my face        to gaze          in your direction

await your call                 and summoning       inflection

you are the reality             of all my reflection

the seal of promise                  along with your protection

 

There is no sweeter              taste to Life

than the Love            you have espoused of wife

to be known by you            within our home

from within your embrace            to never roam

 

You did from Egypt purchase us             with your own blood and sweat

a ransom so costly        we could never of it forget

You have passed over             the firstborn of your affection

You swore an oath to return                 a perfect Loves resurrection

 

Who is like our beloved            among the nations

the true torch          that lightens all new creations

what you heard calling you                was not the Sea

that cry for your affection                          from the heart of me

 

Every single Word     that was True     to you I spoke

the things that are sacred          was the Love in Garden broke

does the one who does not see           wish to remain blind

only Love in living color           the unseeing will not find

 

There is a fire in the forest

that is breaking open all the seed

without the blaze of refinement

it lays dormant to your lead

 

Enlightenment has struck           congealing in the Dust

it is electrifying           will accomplish what it must

from the heavens         Light           to expose the lie

and when it strikes        a multitude of lies            will die

 

Perfect Love does cast out fear               its cost is priceless dear

for such a treasure             one must dig deep

of its location                     and its secrets keep

to his faithfulness           God has sworn

with the Spirit of Truth                       are his children formed

 

 John 1:1-14     Eph 5:25-33       Heb 6:13-20     IPeter 1:3-5
