Beloved

Song of Solomon 7: 10-12

I am my beloved’s,

and his desire is for me. 

Come, my beloved,

 

let us go forth into the fields,

and lodge in the villages;

let us go out early to the vineyards,

 

and see whether the vines have budded,

whether the grape blossoms have opened

and the pomegranates are in bloom.

There I will give you my love.

 

 

​Lord, it seems inconceivable

That you love me

That you want to spend time with me

That you think I am worth this.

Yet your word shows

The depth and height, length and breadth 

Of the love you have for me.

And you have plans for me

To journey with you in this world.

To plant, tend and reap

In the garden you have created.

And in that garden

Where all humanity live and breathe

Your love is displayed

And can be shown

Through me
