Lord, how long

1
Lord, how long, dear Bridegroom,
’Til You come, Lord, how soon?
Don’t delay for that coming day, coming day.
Grant me, Lord, to be filled
With You, Lord, every day.
Dearest Lord, take me all the way.
  Come, Lord Jesus,
Please come, dear Bridegroom;
Precious One, come soon, come soon.
Lord, consume me!
Oh Lord, don’t let me stray,
Faithful to You all the way.
2
Lord, make home in all my heart
In my secret, deepest parts,
Hidden, Lord, and reserved for You, for You.
You would be preeminent
In all things and all events,
Possessed by Thee to this extent.
3
In my prayer and deepest plea
In my spirit always be
Saturated and soaked with Thee, with Thee.
This would be my life daily.
Every hour expecting Thee,
This I pray, Lord, desperately!
4
The universe, in it we see,
In the sweetest touch of Thee,
You’re my choice and my destiny, destiny.
Lord, whate’er the price may be,
Lord, Amen, let it be!
Oh, my Love, please come back quickly!
5
In Your love I am constrained.
What’s within, I can’t contain.
Lord, I can’t any more restrain, restrain.
In Your love, I’ll pour on Thee.
And the church, Your Bride to be,
This my choice voluntarily.

Dear God,

Keep me safe. Keep me close to Thee.

Let me see Your Love in each and every I meet this day.

Dear God keep me near to Thee in the midst of life's storms

The sunshine is always behind the cloudy day

Though the darkness hides my shame

I feel courage in Thy Holy name.

The Lord must gain His Bride but for this to happen He first must gain His Body. Brother Ron Kangas in the last message of the Memorial Day Feast in Bellevue, WA. encouraged us to pray "LORD GIVE ME TODAY'S GROWTH, GROW IN ME SO YOU CAN HAVE THE BUILT UP BODY OF CHRIST"

In the first stanza of this song Brother Higashi prays "Grant me, Lord, to be filled with You, Lord, every day. Dearest Lord, take me all the way." This is related to another prayer Brother Ron gave us "Cause me to reach maturity in life before I finish my course."

Lord give us today our daily growth, to match You, to become the Body, and for You to gain Your Bride, Beloved Bridegroom.
