Yearning

Come out
from the shadows
stand in the Light
and see His face
there
before you -
His Bride
He has called you
did you not hear
His voice
speaking your name?
He has ransomed you
rescued you
from death itself
Still you cower
doubting His call
doubting His grace
doubting Him
Will you not step forward?
bask in His presence?
be His Bride?
O come!
You are His
and He would give Life
full
abundant
free
to you
living in you
He is yours
and in Him
you have all
you need
Come be
who He created you to be
Reveal your beauty
your holiness
your compassion and love
Cast away your lovers
your false husbands
and be His!
wholly, completely His!
Rouse yourself
from your complacent
sleep
and come
be the Bride
He has called you to be.
