Bride Song (Poem)

In time for Valentine's Day, I'm re-posting a poem I wrote a few years ago that expresses my Love for Yeshua/Jesus the Christ.
Happy Valentine's Day!
~ ESA

You gaze upon me, such Love in your eyes

Calling me “Beloved,” but what have I done?
I am hated, a loser, a thing people despise
Do I deserve such Love from someone?

~Let me look through your eyes, my beloved
~Let me look through your eyes and know
~What's within me, that you discovered
~Let me seek the Love that you sow
 What do you see with your vision so wise?
I feel lifted; my poor sight undone
A Light deep inside as I look through your eyes
A new journey has now begun
 
~Let me look through your eyes, my beloved
~Let me look through your eyes and know
~What's within me, that you discovered
~Let me seek the Love that you sow

I look through your eyes at the others
Before they were sinful, adrift and just wrong
Now I see the same Light within them
They’ve been the same as me all along

 ~Let us look through your eyes, my beloved
~Let us look through your eyes and know
~What's within us, that you discovered
~Let us seek the Love that you sow


 I share your Love for all others
I reach out my hand without shame
I’ve learned they are sisters and brothers
And God loves each of us the same
 ~Let us look through your eyes, my beloved
~Let us look through your eyes and know
~What's within us, that you discovered
~Let us seek the Love that you sow
  

I sing this Song to the whole world

His Love extends far beyond me

Hate or anger need not be hurled

A better life there can certainly be
 

~Let us look through your eyes, my beloved

~Let us look through your eyes and know

~What's within us, that you discovered

~Let us seek the Love that you sow
  
For the Feast, guests are excited

The Spirit’s mission is done

Bride and Groom at last united

Now they are truly one
 

~Let us look through your eyes, my beloved

~Let us look through your eyes and know

~What's within us, that you discovered

~Let us seek the Love that you sow
  
Brother / Sister no more divided

Basking in the eyes of the Son

Heaven sings; all are delighted

The Promised Kingdom has come
 

~Let us look through your eyes, my beloved

~Let us look through your eyes and know

~What's within us, that you discovered

~Let us seek the Love that you sow
