CANTICLE OF THE BRIDE

John Michael Talbot, from For the Bride



Let us kiss with the touch of our lives Call me Lord to you chamber

For your kiss is an excellent wine flowing smoothly poured out for a lover.



For a bride belongs to her lover

And a Bridegroom yarns for His Bride

So come to the night there to empty our lives

To be fulfilled with the flowers of dawn.



Let us go to the Vineyard my love to see if the vines are in bloom

If the vines have opened to blossom new life, so I will open to you.

As the flowers send forth their fragrant perfume

So the doors of my love shall be open

For I have stored up my treasure for you and now I give you my love



For a bride belongs to her lover

And a Bridegroom yarns for His Bride

So come to the night there to empty our lives

To be fulfilled with the flowers of dawn.



So come to the night there to empty our lives

To be fulfilled with the flowers of dawn.
