Lord, You are Beloved, Fairest of the fair;
Altogether lovely, unrivaled beauty;
It’s You! Your presence, I long for and seek;
You’re the One in Whom my heart delights,
So, I just love to tell You...

Jesus, I love You,
My treasure, You are;

Dead I was in sin Lord, so lost without You;
Helpless, wounded, weary, rebellious, too;
But Lord, You came! You would not let me go;
The blood and water flowed from Your side,
Constraining me to tell You...

Thank You Lord, You opened my blind eyes to see
I was lame, but now I can walk; You healed me!
My leprosy, Lord, You cleansed all away;
My ears were opened to hear Your voice,
And now I follow You ’cause...

Sometimes Lord, I’m drawn off by my selfish cares;
And the world it draws me with glitter and glare.
O Lord, You’ve trapped me. Don’t let me go.
Kiss me and woo me, and win my heart,
So, I will always tell You...
And the world it draws me with glitter and glare.

So, I will always tell You...

Keep my heart so soft, Lord, so open to You;
It would be the good ground to bear fruit for You;
Capture my friends Lord, and build us, I pray;
Your Bride, We’d match You in every way,
And corporately we tell You:

Jesus, Come quickly,
We’re waiting for You;
We’re the virgins to You,
So single and true;
Forever and ever
Your counterpart true.

So single and true;
Forever and ever

I love this song for the way it describes our Christian life. Sometimes we are filled with praise and love for the Lord, but sometimes we struggle in our sin or are drawn off by our desires. Yet through it all, Lord Jesus we love You! He has captured us!

Oh Lord Jesus I love You!!! My treasure You are!!! This hymn is lovely to sing to The Lord and warms my heart so much toward Him. It feels with each stanza I open my whole being to Him more. By the end my spirit is agreeing with the corporate prayer of "Jesus come quickly, we're waiting for You". Oh may I be one of the wise virgins preparing for the return of our beloved Bridegroom!
