Lord,
thank you for your love,
vulnerable, soft, and open,
pure and without guile,
the way you entered the world
as a babe.
Kind and patient,
long-suffering,
pursuing, jealous,
eternal flame of passion,
still and always,
the Lover of my soul,
please hold onto me
and don’t let me go.
My Messiah,
you’ve overwhelmed me
with your love,
loved me into surrender,
I love you,
I need you,
take my heart,
and have your way,
make me wholly, fully yours.
Amen.
