Capitol City

I am a captive and a prisoner of your affections draw me with robes of purple wrapped with cords of silver let me embrace you ten thousand times ten thousand nights with four times as many days until I can no longer distinguish that there are two but only one us and upon my lips the exclamations of exaltations you have produced prosperity for all peoples of the lands enlarged the bounties meant for all Words of healing spring forth like waterfalls that saturate a thirsty earth a river that descends to all nations your generousity the filling of every table and the wine of gladness every cup until one cannot see and end ever to your goodness forgotten the former times like a nightmare no longer able to be remembered take me in your net thread me with your song where the dance of joy has filled the courtyard of our home Oh Zion the capital city of the King and you oh barren woman will give birth for your repurchaser the treasures of the nations being collected together the gifts that will adorn the Kings storehouse will flow the restoration of all things Every gem of kindness decorates your halls the true wealth of the nations belongs to you and your surpassing loving kindness I will extoll before you and all the families of the earth You oh Royal Residence decoration of the nations to be filled with the Song of the Bridegroom and the Song of the Bride the crowning birth of the Diadem the nursery for the nations for you shall raise them up with tender compassions and the milk of loving kindnesses and kindle a longing for the attributes of love This gift is for you Oh Israel the dwelling your maker has constructed to house you Within Jah has placed the well spring of life the everlasting presence of your King Amen , come Lord Jesus sources Isaiah 54 , 62 Revelation 21 , 22 COPYRIGHT © 2011 C Michael Miller via Duboff Law Group LLC
