this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life.
One thing I ask;
this is what I seek:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life.
to gaze
to gaze
to gaze upon Your beauty
to gaze upon Your beauty
to gaze
to gaze
to gaze upon Your beauty
to gaze upon Your beauty
(lyrics by King David, arranged by Stephen Muenich)
I wish I had a recording of this song, so I could play it from the rooftops. and give you a link to it - floods my soul, honestly, with the glory of the Lord. not that I'm partial to my husband's music... As we go retreat as the female half of Jesus's bride, I pray (yearn!) that this would honestly be what we seek.
We are enthralled by Your beauty, Jesus. We want to dwell with You. It is the one thing we desire more than any other: to dwell in Your house and to gaze on Your face.
YOUR FACE, JESUS! love.
