THE SPIRIT AND THE BRIDE

THE SPIRIT AND THE BRIDE

A malaise in today's church, disabling
Faintness, mood swings, low resistance
The condition warrants her attention,
She disregards the diagnosis.

I told you there was something wrong.
The bride lives in an aberrant world,
Enticements streaming to disrupt her
Faithfulness is on the line.

From what's known to what is not
Analogy speaks to her of marriage
She has been violating vows
And he says softly "I'm your husband."

The resource ignored far too often,
God's Spirit resident within her
Can make her all that she should be
The noble bride he came to save.
