The Opening

This Gift

You’ve laid out before me,

Spread out like a banquet feast.

You say that it is for me, You

Are for me.

You offer unto me

This Gift

It is here for me to open

To take it out and claim it

Put it on and to remain

Forever wrapped up in it

This Gift

You’ve laid before me

It is Your Love for them…

Your Love is the Sword You’ve given

Me, the Sword I wield in defense

For them

A fierce and loyal service

For them

Fighting tooth and nail

For them it is all

For them

And for them I give my all

I am theirs and they are mine

Because we are all

Yours.

Spread out, laid out

Like a banquet feast,

This Gift

You offer unto me

You wait so patiently

For me to open, finally

Just open

This Gift

You have for me

Opened, it pours out

It will pour out endlessly

It is Your Love for them

It now belongs

To me

You have given it all to me

And to them I now belong

I give my all to be. This Gift

You’ve laid out

Your Love. Spread out

Like a banquet feast
