By night on my bed I sought the one I love;
I sought him, but I did not find him.
“I will rise now,” I said,
“And go about the city;
In the streets and in the squares
I will seek the one I love.”
I sought him, but I did not find him.
-Song of Songs 3:1-2
Former Flyleaf vocal lead Lacey Strum has released a powerful single that captures the Bride of Christ’s desire to be with her husband.
With the use of strong visual contrasts of sorrow and joy, desolation and beauty, prophetic themes are manifested which will greatly resonate with Christians seeking to be fully clothed (2 Corinthians 5:1-5) standing face to face with their Husbandman (1 Corinthians 13:12).
Do This Till My Coming
Imagery of the Lord’s table is also communicated through the lyrics and music video:
“To this one flesh, drinking in, My only love, exclusive wine.”
The duality of the Lord’s table is something we should not forget.
We partake to not only reflect on the sacrifice of Christ for our sin but to remember His triumphant return to receive His Bride (1 Corinthians 11:26).
Who Is This Coming Out Of The Wilderness Like Pillars Of Smoke?
“Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense,
With all the merchant’s fragrant powders?
Behold, it is Solomon’s couch,
With sixty valiant men around it,
Of the valiant of Israel.
They all hold swords,
Being expert in war.
Every man has his sword on his thigh
Because of fear in the night.” – Song of Songs 3:6-8
Be encouraged that as you see the day approaching, you will soon be united with the One you love.
