That we are the "bride of Christ", this thought can get us confused and uneasy, as in "why would He want to have anything to do with me?" Chad once again meditates on these encouraging scriptures. When we are in trouble, we cling to God's love. As this episode is being uploaded, our beloved Lutheran brother Kris Lewis lies in a coma in California after suffering a severe stroke. If our faith left out the glorious love of the Bridegrrom, the lover of our soul, we would give in to despair. But no, we are loved now and into eternity, and loved so deeply that God would call us His bride. We cannot lose, when are hope is in Christ. The talented Marvelle Figueroa sings "My Perfect One".

Lyrics to "My Perfect One"
“Who is this who looks down like the dawn,
Glorious beauty, as the moon, bright as the sun,
My perfect one, in love divine
Turn away your eyes, for they overwhelm me—Your eyes are formidable, like an army
My perfect one, and I am Your bride
Chorus:
Together, together in the garden of love
Our eyes meet together, but I want to run
Turn away, You are too beautiful
Look away, I am not worthy
But You are my Savior, and I am Your bride
You ask me where my Beloved has gone,
Would he hide his face awayMy perfect one, in love divine
My beloved has gone down to his garden
and there he will gaze into my eyes
My perfect one, and I am Your brideChorus:
Together, together in the garden of love
Our eyes meet together in the garden of love
Turn away, You are too beautiful
Look away, I am not worthy
But You are my Savior, and I am Your bride

Lyrics to "One Night As I Lay Sleeping"
One night as I was sleeping
My heart awakened, in a dream
On my, door my love was knocking
Saying open my beloved
Swing open wide the door to me
But I felt naked, and ashamed
So I waited…
For a better time
I waited…
For a better way
And the waiting
Was my undoing
My great loss
In my heart
Rain will fall
In my heart
Dark clouds gather
But You hold the key to open the door
I fall in your arms, to praise and adore
My Lord and my lover
My God and my Savior
Lovers forever
Lovers forever
Amen
All the things that haunt me
All the empty spaces, I tried to fill
only your love can redeem
By your mercy, by your grace
United in paradise
My redemption
By your sacrifice
But I waited…
For a better time
I waited…
For a better way
And the waiting
Was my undoing
My great loss
Won’t you tell, tell my beloved
I am sick with love
Tell my beloved
That I’m sorry
Tell my beloved
My soul failed
My ways failed
And its my great loss

We live in a world that has so grossly perverted the idea of love, so its easy to avoid thinking about God's love for us, because that could be a little gross and uncomfortable. Thankfully scripture gives us beautiful readings on love, and Chapter 4 of Song of Songs is a great love poem. Chad meditates and encourages us all, and Chris Lizotte and Jamie Eichler sing "Come to the Garden, My Beloved"

Lyrics to "Everlasting"
PSALM 41
Blessed is the one
Who cares for the helpless
The Lord will rescue them
In times of distress
Blessed be the one
Who knows that the Lord sustains
The Lord, my Lord, upholds them
And knows all their pain
Chorus
Your life is our life
Your suffering our suffering
Your death is our death
And your resurrection
Is our resurrection
From everlasting to everlasting
Amen
O Lord have pity on me
In your presence forever
My enemies say terrible things
that I will disappear”
Even the friend I trusted
Has now begun to wander
But You heal me when I sin
And You defend my honor
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, amen

Who my souls loves
One brighter than the sun
And my heart is glad
My love secure
You are guiding me home
With love that endures

And when I found you
Then I held you close
Every heart beat is Yours
Don’t ever let go

Lyrics to "Lily of the Valleys"
Behold, you are beautiful
You are beautiful, my love;
Behold, you are beautifulAnd your eyes, they are like doves
But who am I, that you would love me
An ordinary lily of the valleys?
You raise a banner over me
Like the rising sun
Chorus
I belong to You
You belong to me
The lily of the valleys
The lily of the valleys
Under the sun
Behold, our house is filled with love
At the table where we feast
Sweetest of apples and raisins
Our joy is released
But who am I, that you would love me
An ordinary lily of the valleys?
You raise a banner over me
Like the rising sun

I belong to You
You belong to me

Lyrics to "Kiss Me" Song of Songs 1:1-15
I can hear You softly
Singing out my name
A Song of Songs
Like a burning flame
The world’s greatest love song
That was ever penned
A Song of the ages (Songs)
And it will never end
Chorus
Kiss me with the kisses of your mouth
Better than wine
Your love is all mine
Kiss me with the kisses of your mouth
The sun burned my skin
Touch me and heal my sin
Deep within
Deep within
Draw me near
I’ll come home to You
Across the desert sands
You carry me through
The heart of the Father
The wings of a dove
A Song of Songs or the voice of my Savior
Over the sea of love
Chorus
Kiss me with the kisses of your mouth
Better than wine
Your love is all mine
Kiss me with the kisses of your mouth
The sun has burned my skin
Touch me and heal my sin
Deep within
Deep within
Behold You are beautiful
We will always be together
The lover of my soul
Now and forever

Lyrics to "A Millionfold"
You are faithful
For a thousand generations
To a covenant You made
With Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
Our inheritance was paid
With no strength in our hands
We travel a cross the sands
With Your protection
Wandering the desert
Our only hope is Your direction
A millionfold
A thousand times a thousand souls
Undeserving, here we stand
upon this land
Because of Your love
Because of Your faithful word
Oh Jesus
We give glory and thanks
Unto Your name forever
Unto Your name forever
You guard Your beloved
With Your outstretched arm
You say “Don’t touch my anointed ones,
do my prophets no harm!”
In the lonely desert places
You multiply Your grace
And You feed us at Your banquet
Spread out a table in this place
A millionfold
A thousand times a thousand souls
Undeserving, upon this land
Here we stand
Because of Your love
Because of Your faithful word
As beloved children
We give You thanks
Unto Your name forever
Unto Your name forever

In this Thanksginving season, this song of David is truly appropriate. We can take no good thing for granted, but in everything give thanks to God.

Lyrics to "Tied Down"
When I was a child
I ran after things I cherished
Things I desired
Led to my soul despairing
When I was lost in my own little town
You sought me
You found me
You came to me, when I was tied down
Chorus:
I was tied down
By my own hands
Charms had their way
I was enslaved
I was tied down
You untangled me
To Your great name
Glory and honor Lord for eternity
To Your great name
Glory and honor Lord for eternity
Your yoke is easy your burden is light
You Opened my eyes then You gave me sight
When I was lost in my own little town
You sought me
You found me
You came to me, when I was tied down
And I will sing your praise
In my heart I’ll give you thanks
In my heart I seek your presence
And I live in Your love and grace
Under Your mercy
Under Your mercy

Lyrics to "Honor and Glory"
You turned the sea to dry land
So we could cross the river
delivered us by your hand

And You have heard my desperate prayers
For You alone save Your sons and daughters
Chorus:
Honor and glory
From every nation
Every generation
Is Yours O God
This day of blessing
Hearts now confessing
Your saving power and glorious work
Forever and ever, Amen.
You O God have tested us
You trapped us in your net
Laid heavy burdens on our backs
Let men trample on our heads
But then You brought us to your house
You refined us like silver
You brought us into freedom land
Through the fire and water

Your Cross covers the whole earth
And points to everyone everywhere
From one man
One crucifixion
One resurrection
One life for everyone

Lyrics to "For Want of Forgiveness"
Let me go, and leave my heart of stone
I’ll walk away
From getting even
For the times I was betrayed
And thought revenge
My only solution
Sunlight
flooding into darkness
You hold me up, and I’m letting go
Jesus, walking on the water
You come for me, and I’m letting go
Chorus:
But Abner;
Your hands were not bound;
your feet were not fettered;No man showed you mercy
Forgiving his debtor
as one falls before the wicked
you have fallen.”For want of forgiveness
Deliver me from seeking my revenge
At the shrine of retribution
And I trust that Lord You have forgiven me
And I received Your absolution
Sunlight
flooding into darkness
You hold me up, so I’m letting go
Jesus, walking on the water
You come for me, and I’m letting go
Chorus:
But Abner;
Your hands were not bound;
your feet were not fettered;None showed you mercy
You were the debtor
as one falls before the wicked
you have fallen.”For want of forgiveness
Don’t want to live a lie
Empty and alone
For want of forgiveness
A fool without friends
Take my heart of stone
I have been forgiven
