A divine, romantic story

1
There is a great mystery,
A wonderful story;
For ages ’twas hidden,
Now shown in His wisdom;
’Tis a divine romance
Of God and man in time;
Beyond understanding,
Yet seen in God’s speaking.
  God fell in love with man;
For only God’s love can
Make man just the same as He
In life and in nature.
We are His expression,
His bride, His enlargement;
Forever, together,
As living, insep’rable as one couple
Eternally.
2
Though He was rejected
By men who were blinded;
His love is constraining,
His heart still unchanging;
Thus in incarnation
Came He as salvation;
His name is called Jesus,
And He came to seek us.
3
Though born as a sinner,
His blood has redeemed me.
He suffered on Calv’ry,
Then raised up in glory,
To regenerate me.
Now joined in one spirit
I love to enjoy Him,
For I’ve been forgiven!
4
His love is so tender,
To Him I’ll surrender;
His name is so precious,
I gladly call, “Jesus!”
His Person’s so charming,
My heart ever winning;
I’ll hold back no longer,
I’ll love Him forever.

Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus says Jehovah: I remember concerning you the kindness of your youth, The love of your bridal days, When you followed Me in the wilderness, In a land that was not sown.

(Jeremiah 2:2)

Thank You Lord, You are so charming! Seeing You simply constrains us to love You forever. Our testimony now is that, 'You've won our hearts. '

Thank You Lord

I've been heard this song so much time as one song of many that just I KNOW.

But when I appreciate this song with such a divine and romantic lyric, I just got touched by His love.

How wonderful and unspeakable Love!

Lord You are from eternity past and still now preparing Your corporate bride for Your eternal joy!

Hallelujah we are His bride and a part of Him inseparable forever and ever!
