Lord, how long

Lord

how long

dear Bridegroom

’Til You come

Lord

how soon?

Don’t delay for that coming day

coming day.

Grant me

Lord

to be filled

With You

Lord

every day.

Dearest Lord

take me all the way.

Come

Lord Jesus

Please come

dear Bridegroom;

Precious One

come soon

come soon.

Lord

consume me!

Oh Lord

don’t let me stray

Faithful to You all the way.

Lord

make home in all my heart

In my secret

deepest parts

Hidden

Lord

and reserved for You

for You.

You would be preeminent

In all things and all events

Possessed by Thee to this extent.

In my prayer and deepest plea

In my spirit always be

Saturated and soaked with Thee

with Thee.

This would be my life daily.

Every hour expecting Thee

This I pray

Lord

desperately!

The universe

in it we see

In the sweetest touch of Thee

You’re my choice and my destiny

destiny.

Lord

whate’er the price may be

Lord

Amen

let it be!

Oh

my Love

please come back quickly!

In Your love I am constrained.

What’s within

I can’t contain.

Lord

I can’t any more restrain

restrain.

In Your love

I’ll pour on Thee.

And the church

Your Bride to be

This my choice voluntarily.
