Beautiful is the bride
And pure as new-fallen snow.
Her heart is full to overflowing
With love and rejoicing,
As she goes forward to meet the Bridegroom.
All her thoughts are of Him;
Her soul is sweet with peace
For she knows His love is for all time,
And His strength to protect her is unlimited.
Her small hand touches His hand,
Her happy eyes meet His,
And the silent message between them
Fills their hearts with joy.
The Bridegroom, waiting for His bride,
Sees nothing but her face.
As He watches,
His mind is flooded with memories
Of their courtship.
There was never a doubt for Him;
From the day they met,
He knew He could love her forever.
But her hesitance tore His heart apart.
Now she reaches His side,
She smiles with perfect faith,
And those lonely hours
Are washed away in the flood of joy.
You are the Bride;
Christ is the Bridegroom.
You are made beautiful by His grace.
You are made pure by His blood.
And this is His gift of love to you:
That you will be His bride for all time,
That every moment will be rich with exquisite joy,
And this sweet, bridal tenderness
Will blossom in your heart forever.
The bridegroom’s day of sorrow is over,
For you have accepted His love.
You have given yourself to Him in faith,
And you are the Beloved of the gentle Christ.
“Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready.” Revelation 19:7, NIV
