Before you did anything to impress or disappoint Him, He decided, that you are the focus of His love. Man exists to be in union with His Maker, for Divine companionship and encounter. He calls us to come away from a life bound by seasons, to an uninterrupted friendship with Him. In Christ, God dealt with every possible excuse man could have to feel separated and distanced from God.
lyrics
Come away my beloved, for you know the winter’s past
The rain is gone, the flowers bloom
I will take you beyond seasons
Arise my love and come away
In my shelter, hide away
For I long to hear your voice and see your face
Come away, won’t you run away with me
Hide away with me My love
For your Lover is your Lord
Oh my Lord I hear Your call
Once again my heart is overwhelmed
How I love to see Your face
Within Your shelter I will hear Your voice
For Your love is sweet as wine
I’m captivated by Your smile
My Beloved, I am Yours, You are mine
I’ll come away, I’ll run away with You
Hide away with You my Love (x2)
For Your love is my desire
