I love Thee, Jesus,
And Thy love to me
Draws me, ever to seek Thee
And run after Thee,
Draws me, ever to seek Thee
And run after Thee.
Thou art beloved,
Yea! Altogether lovely,
The One in whom my heart delighteth.
And Thy love to me
Draws me, ever to seek Thee
And run after Thee,
Draws me, ever to seek Thee
And run after Thee.
Thou art beloved,
Yea! Altogether lovely,
The One in whom my heart delighteth.

Thy love, Lord Jesus,
Is sweeter than wine,
And Thy fragrance of ointments
My heart doth entwine,
And Thy fragrance of ointments
My heart doth entwine.
A fount in gardens,
A well of living waters,
Which streams and flows from Lebanon’s mountains.
Is sweeter than wine,
And Thy fragrance of ointments
My heart doth entwine,
And Thy fragrance of ointments
My heart doth entwine.
A fount in gardens,
A well of living waters,
Which streams and flows from Lebanon’s mountains.

O come Beloved,
On my garden blow,
That the odor of spices
May break forth and flow,
That the odor of spices
May break forth and flow.
My spouse, My sister,
I’m come into My garden
To feast upon wine, milk and honey.
On my garden blow,
That the odor of spices
May break forth and flow,
That the odor of spices
May break forth and flow.
My spouse, My sister,
I’m come into My garden
To feast upon wine, milk and honey.

Set me, Lord Jesus,
As seal on Thine heart;
Jealousy’s cruel as Sheol,
And love’s strong as death,
Jealousy’s cruel as Sheol,
And love’s strong as death.
Much water cannot
Quench love, nor do floods drown it.
All man could give for love is contemned.
As seal on Thine heart;
Jealousy’s cruel as Sheol,
And love’s strong as death,
Jealousy’s cruel as Sheol,
And love’s strong as death.
Much water cannot
Quench love, nor do floods drown it.
All man could give for love is contemned.
(Repeat the last three lines of each stanza)

Our Lord Jesus is so lovely. Draw us oh Lord, we will run after You.

This hymn causes me to appreciate the Lord's love toward us as revealed in the Song of Songs. I am touched by the line, "O come Beloved, on my garden blow." As Christ's redeemed ones, we are being produced as an enclosed garden. This garden is something private, signifying our hidden and personal enjoyment and experiences of the Lord that is for Him alone. If we have such a relationship with the Lord, we will grow 'beds of spices' in the garden in our spirit, which is sweet and satisfying to His taste. Lord, thank You for Your love toward us. We desire to mature in life to be produced as Your Bride for Your satisfaction.

Our God, our Saviour the Lord Jesus as our Beloved is the sweetest most enjoyable One who dwells in our spirit to make us His garden filled with His divine essence for ours and His enjoyment. This enjoyment taking place in the depth of our being is the enjoyment of God and is the best gift in all the universe. Amen.There is nothing in the universe that can ever be compared to our enjoyment of the Triune God in the depth of our being. Oh Lord Jesus keep us in this reality to enjoy You in our being all our days to consummate Your eternal heart's desire; The New Jerusalem, God's eternal abode with man. Oh our dear Lord Jesus we treasure You as the One worthy to indwell us in the center, Lord, of our being, our human spirit. Oh Lord Jesus how we love You. Amen.
