Eternally Yours...

The song lyrics of "Eternal" by Sanctus Real read like a love letter to God.

Do you ever sit back and meditate, really linger, on the permanence of our relationship with God?

Maybe you do, but that's not something that I really dwelled on. I have thought about the complexity of the God of the universe(s) loving this insignificant speck of matter-encrusted soul.

I've entertained the concept of the wrath of God versus the grace of God.

I've never really considered the fact that our relationship with God is unerringly permanent. He purposely created a species that he wanted to have a flow of interaction with Him. A Niagara Falls sort of flow forever.

I think sometimes I am so caught up in my guilt and shame that I forget that He desires our company. Eh, my thoughts are getting jumbled. I am so tired. Pilates early tomorrow.

Here are the lyrics...

"Eternal"

I know this life I lead will pass away
Along with every other earthly thing
So I will set my heart on a higher plain
Where my treasure lies with You

And in this marriage of our hearts
There is no death do us part
For You are eternal
And I am eternally Yours

And I could never lose Your love to sickness
Oh I could never lose You to divorce
And there's no concept of abandonment
For I am safe within Your arms

And in this marriage of our hearts
There is no death do us part
For You are eternal
And I am eternally Yours
Oh I am eternally Yours
I am eternally Yours

(No abandonment)
(Safe within Your arms)

I never had enough until I found You
I never knew love until I met You
I never had enough until I found You
And now I have everything

And in this marriage of our hearts
There is no death do us part
For You are eternal
And I am eternally Yours
And I am eternally Yours
Oh I am eternally Yours

I could never lose You
No I will never lose You
I could never lose You

And this life will pass away
But You will never change
Oh this life will pass away
Oh but You will never change
