the Story of You and Me

There’s this line running through my head

Us, its us

Not me, not you

But you and me, together
A truth non can undo

Interwoven, tightly wound

Inseparable, forever bound

It bounces and moves and sometimes forgets

But never does that change

The us in my head

I started out as just me

You have always been you

You pursed and wooed

I ran away, and sometimes still do

The life you have

And the death you gave

Sealed my fate

Forever, your blood to save

It sounds strange, blood and body

Cover my nasty sin soaked life

And yet its true, hosea in the godly flesh

Pursing his bride to make her his wife

A prostitute I have been,

A whore that gives to all

I hid in the darkness

Covered only by the fall

You found me, oh king

I was shrouded in the dark

Your radiance destroyed the night

Wiped away my death mark

Your beauty and your love

Your strength and your grace

Became all that I knew

As I looked upon your face

Sometimes I forget

That I’m your bride

And you, oh pursuer of hearts

Are with whom I reside

You have covered me in your cloak

Pure white that I can’t create

Your purity is my portion

Shame no longer my fate

This is your song from the place

Above the sky to my heart

This has been your everlasting plan

That you set in motion from the start

You who dwell within me

There is always us

I am not by myself

Never single, always one plus

A mystery I may never know

An understanding I can’t seize

But this place of mystery with you

Is better than my own half answers of ease

All of this so I could know you, love you

And I do, lover of my soul

Sin was just the obstacle

That I would be with you was the goal

There’s this line running through my head

Us, it’s us

Not just me, not just you

But you and me, together
A truth non can undo

Us
