KeyWords: Resting in the Lord,

Chorus One:
Come, take My love, draw near to Me,
That I may feel you, that I may lie with thee;
For I will fill to overflowing
Come, love Me now, and quench my yearning.

Verse One:
Come to My arms, leave all behind,
[The willfulness, the words unkind],
The thoughts of other loves but Me,
[Shallow joys will never make you free.]
Just close your eyes and look above,
[Now join with Me in the act of love,]
Be one with Me, [heart and soul],
Abandon all, and lose control.

Chorus Two:
Come, take My love, draw near to Me,
That I may feel you, that I may lie with thee;
For I will fill to overflowing
Come, love Me now, and quench my yearning.

Verse Two:
There are sweet words upon My lips,
[Come closer now and gently slip]
Into My presence warm and bright,
[And let Me fill your soul with light,]
With light and warmth, a love so wild,
[All other pleasures seem so mild.]
I'll take your heart, [it's all right]
Turn it to gold, You're Mine tonight.

Chorus Three:
Come, take My love, draw near to Me,
That I may feel you, that I may lie with thee;
For I will fill to overflowing
Come, love Me now, and quench my yearning.
You're mine tonight...[Come,
Let Me fill your soul with light!]

Chorus Four:
Come, take My love, draw near to Me,
That I may feel you, that I may lie with thee;
For I will fill to overflowing
Come, love Me now, and quench my yearning.      
Come, love Me now, Come, take My love.
