  • Give her over

    Give her over
    your lover
    to the Lover
    I know you love her
    deeply
    yet He loves her even more
    deeply
    trust her to His love
    Can He not be trusted
    Your Lover trusted with your love
    He is your Lover
    He is your Friend
    He is hers also
    in life or in death
    He will be magnified in her
    Magnify the sovereign Lord with me
    Let us exalt His Name together
    Forever and ever

    He knew her from the womb
    He knew her before time began
    He was slain for her before the foundation of the world
    He shed His blood to redeem her
    Surely He became sin for her
    Surely He bore her griefs
    Surely He did
    Surely

    Give her over
    your lover
    to the Lover
    I know you grieve for her
    deeply
    yet He grieves for her even more
    deeply
    trust her to His joy
    Can he not be trusted
    He is your Joy
    He is your Friend
    He is hers also
    in life or in death
    He will be magnified in her
    Magnify the sovereign Lord with me
    Let us exalt His Name together
    Forever and ever

    He knew her from her first birth
    He knew her from her first steps
    He was slain for her before the foundation of the world
    He shed His blood to redeem her
    Surely He became sin for her
    Surely He bore her griefs
    Surely He did
    Surely

    Give her over
    your lover
    to the Lover
    I know you sing to her
    deeply
    yet He sings to her even more
    deeply
    trust her to His Song
    He is your Joy
    He is your Friend
    He is hers also
    in life or in death
    He will be magnified in her
    Magnify the sovereign Lord with me
    Let us exalt His Name together
    Forever and ever

    He knew her from her second birth
    He knew her from her first steps
    He was slain for her before the foundation of the world
    He shed His blood to redeem her
    Surely He became sin for her
    Surely He bore her griefs
    Surely He did
    Surely

    Give her over
    your lover
    to the Lover
    I know you suffer with her
    deeply
    yet He suffers with her even more
    deeply
    trust her to His Glory
    He is your Glory
    He is your Friend
    He is hers also
    in life or in death
    He will be magnified in her
    Magnify the sovereign Lord with me
    Let us exalt His Name together
    Forever and ever

    He knew her from the heights to the depths
    He knew her through the day and the night
    He was slain for her before the foundation of the world
    He shed His blood to redeem her
    Surely He became sin for her
    Surely He bore her griefs
    Surely He did
    Surely

    Give her over
    your lover
    to the Lover
    I know you intercede for her
    deeply
    yet He intercedes for her even more
    deeply
    trust her to His Throne
    He is your High Priest
    He is your Friend
    He is hers also
    in life or in death
    He will be magnified in her
    Magnify the sovereign Lord with me
    Let us exalt His Name together
    Forever and ever

    Amen

  • No other love can or should try to take the place of our First Love.  The Lord gives and the Lord takes away.  Blessed be the Name of the Lord!  This is a good exhortation.  It always helps to keep our hearts and minds fixed on Him so we don't lose our perspective.  Him, we will always have.  His gifts to us are ours for a season, but everything returns to Him.  All things were made by Him and for Him.  To Him alone belongs the glory.  I liked this post, Karen!

About me...

Christian hedonist in training. Pressing on to know more and more of the joy of the LORD. Pleading with God to rend the heavens and revive and refresh my own soul, as well as His Church, to His praise, honor and glory.

Thank God. He can make men and women in middle life sing again with a joy that has been chastened by a memory of their past failures. ~ Alan Redpath
