The Blood of Love

In the inescapable darkness

Deliverance was not in view

But light has shined in darkness

The advent of the TRUE

Remember and rejoice

Watch and wait

For the fulfillment of His promise is come

Source of  our Magnificat

What great things has God done for me?

A wretched man was I.

The flood of judgment mine.

When I was dead he drew me

He gave salvation to me

Now in The blessed Love of Christ

Forever I abide

Oh deep, deep love

Precious gift from God above

Grows ever deeper still

In the living of His Will.

Oh deep deep love

This itself will be enough

This alone can satisfy

The blood of love will be our cry.

In the valley of the shadow of death

The devil wants our final breath.

Drowned in oceans of deep darkness

Or into hell’s futile abyss

To take us Down into the depths of judment’s flood

But deeper is the fountain filled with blood.

So align my heart with your heart

Remove anything that would keep us apart

Make my heart tender as I surrender

Open my heart to its innermost part

As true service I seek, forge my affections

Into a heartfelt connection

Take my motives I pray

And renew them today

Powered by your resurrection!

Ps. 42:7
