CONQUERING LOVE

(Song of Solomon 2:8-13)

The voice of my Beloved spake, And sweetly said to me,
“Arise my love, the world forsake, And come away with Me
For lo! The winter now is past, The chilling winds are o’er,
The sweet springtime has come at last, The sun shines out once more.

The flowers now are sending out The breath of sweet perfume,
The hillsides echo with a shout, The birds their songs resume.
The turtledove lifts up her voice To sing her Maker’s praise,
Come now and let your heart rejoice, Your voice in rapture raise.

The fig tree putteth forth her figs, The vines with grapes abound.
The buds adorn the tender twigs, The hills with grass are crowned.
Arise, my love, and come away; My fair one, hear my voice,
In darkness now no longer stay, In holy light rejoice.

’Tis my desire to dwell below With Him, my Husband, Friend;
And when from this vain world I go, To His abode ascend,
There, there amid that holy throng, I hope to find a place –
While endless ages roll along, To rest in His embrace.

(By Elder John R. Daily, 1854-1920)
