Today, Lord, Today

Lord

today

I open my being

And allow Your flame to search my inward parts;

Burn away all the wicked way in my heart

Cleanse away

Lord

today

today.

If my Bridegroom further delays

Shall I passive be while waiting for too long?

As I wait I’d be clothed with Thy garment

As a bride adorned for her Husband to be

to be.

Lord

it’s just a matter of time

You would make us all perfected somehow.

But I’d rather be judged and exposed now

Than to wait for that coming day

Lest I miss Thy face

Today

today

Lord

today.
