The Groom Is Longing For His Bride
She comes from her closet
Clad in a pure white gown
The atmosphere has been charged
Joy, peace and love rule the day
All eyes suddenly drawn to one direction
No chance to look down
Lest eyes miss the spectacular scene
The glimpse of the hem of the gown,
Is enough to solicit praise and ululations
The groom awaits his bride
His eyes shine with delight
Longing for His dear bride
Come my fair one, my dove
Come into my arms my love
All is set for you and me
Shall we dance?
She walks gracefully towards her groom
From her head to her toes speak radiance
The groom has gone through much pain
to woo her,
She is ready to dance
Her heart and mind are serenaded by
her groom’s heavenly melodies
While He still sings
While He still lavishes His bride with love…
Another voice
Another song
Another promise
Another man
The voice of her beloved groom,
becomes distant
She turns around
She dances away
Her gown gets marred by shame
It gets stained by confusion
Her heart has been caught by a strange song
Her used to be spotless gown now has blemishes
The groom looks on,
Eyes filled with tears
A sharp pain pierces His soul
He sacrificed His life for His beloved bride
He is longing for His bride
Oh
The groom is longing for His dear bride
My love…He pleads…with outstretched arms
Come back, He gently pleads
We can start over
Remember I left my throne and its splendor for your sake
I love you my dove
Come let’s reason together
I still love you
I long to commune with you
Come back my bride...
