Hidden Streams

We've all been wronged, sometimes by those closest to us, or those who we trust the most. So, how do we respond, especially when we know that we can't truthfully claim our own righteousness and demand God's wrath against those who have hurt us. Oftentimes we hold our feelings inside, keeping our thoughts to ourselves, which only makes things worse. In God's mercy, He has given us words to express in prayer, words found in Holy Scripture, that encapsulate our deepest pains and struggles. This passage from Jeremiah is another gem for the wounded. Chad meditates on this passage and points us to...

Song of Songs (Ch 6:1-10) 

Lyrics to "My Perfect One"

“Who is this who looks down like the dawn,

Glorious  beauty, as the moon, bright as the sun,

My perfect one, in love divine
Turn away your eyes, for they overwhelm me—

Your eyes are  formidable, like an army

My perfect one, and I am Your bride

 

Chorus:

Together, together in the garden of love

Our eyes meet together, but I want to run 

Turn away, You are too beautiful

Look away,  I am not worthy 

But You are my Savior, and I am Your bride

 

You ask me where my Beloved has gone,
Would he hide his face away

My perfect one, in love divine

My beloved has gone down to his garden
and there he will gaze into my eyes
My perfect one, and I am Your bride

 

Chorus:

Together, together in the garden of love

Our eyes meet together in the garden of love

Turn away,  You are too beautiful

Look away,  I am not worthy 

But You are my Savior, and I am Your bride
