The Lord's Plea

>

Give Me your hand, My precious,
Come tarry with Me a while,
Let Me draw you closer, into My heart,
Till I see, once again, your sweet smile. 3/9

You have loved Me forever, My darling,
Since you were but simply a child,
Let Me hold your hand and sit by you,
And calm you, with My Spirit so mild.

Let Me hold you so close, My young princess,
Till your spirit is joined into Mine,
We are one, you and I, in My Father,
We are grafted and part of His vine.

There is nothing to fear, oh My sweet one,
For fear is not part of My love,
For your life is surrounded by angels,
Who've been sent by My Father above.

I will bless you, for you are a blessing,
To Me and to all those around,
For your voice it has always encouraged,
In My ears, that's a beautiful sound.

You are loved, with a love beyond measure,
Far greater than any you've known,
I have stood at the throne of My Father,
And said "This one, is My very own."

So lift up your heart, My wee darling,
And let My light shine upon you,
You are loved, you are wanted and welcome,
For your spirit is straight, strong and true.

Know, not for one moment, I'll leave you,
You'll not once in life be alone,
And when comes the time for your passing,
I'll walk you to Our Father's throne.

We'll walk on that path, oh, so gladly,
So proudly we'll stand side by side,
So shining, so spotless the Bridegroom,
So radiant, so glowing, His Bride.
