Indescribable

"Lover; dancer
King
I have enticed you
with my eyes"

Constant, listener
who speaks
into my life, my mind;
to my heart

Healer, comforter,
friend
Showing your concern;
You hold out your arms

Like a child I run
to you
for safety; refuge -
your healing touch

Your wondrous love
is gently revealed
all my times
are in your hands

I want to lie on my face
before your throne
reaching out to touch
the hem of your robe
longing just to be near

Yet you scoop me up
into your arms
with delight in your face,
no-one can replace

I have your approval
so hardly gained
sacrificially won
through your loving son.
No-one else's will I need again

Lover, dancer,
King
You have won me
with your love

Let love come to stay

Guilt and shame
Invite fear to stay
Prohibiting love;
There's no room for both -
in one place

God's perfect love
Casts out that fear
Sweeps out the shame;
Removes the guilt -
& washes me clean

Let love come
Let love come to stay

(1 John)
