Just Like A Bride (1)

God’s church is likened to a bride
In love through Jesus’ kiss
With nought but peace and joy inside
Awaiting life-long bliss

Yet oft she’s like a woman scorned
A fool in many ways
However much her Groom has warned
So oft she disobeys

For since her youth on hallowed ground
When God shut tight His Door
She’s flirted with each lover found
Just like a common harlot

Refusing from the past to learn
Her shameful ways to hate
She’s destined in her filth to burn
And share her lover’s fate

Yet Rahab’s house was sure to fall –Jos.2:1-7
When all within would die –Jos.2:8-13
Through faith, her window wore her shawl –Jos.2:14-21
And death just walked on by –Jos.6:22-25

Yet oft our songs are full of woe
We’re burdened down with shame
Just like the woman with the flow –Lk.8:43-48
Until Salvation came

Like Esther hindered by her king –Est.4:10-11
Through protocol of state
She had Salvation’s song to sing –Est.5:10-11
And freedom couldn’t wait –Est.7:1-10

Like her, traditions hold us down
Religion, binds us tight
Many a jewel still fail our crown
