This weekend, among other amazing things, I wrote a song based on the Hebrew words Esh Oklah and El Kanna (Consuming Fire, Jealous God).
Some text is from Song of Songs, I think it beautifully reflects the loving desire God has for us, the bride, and our desire for our beloved.
Here it is :)
*****************
You call me Your own
Your voice is sweet
You tell me I'm beautiful
To me He brings, His banqueting house
His banner over me, its love
Jealous God consume me with fire
burn me whole
until Your love comes bubbling up
out of my heart
He stands behinds my wall
dying to look through a window
let me see Your glorious face
break through to me
Jealous God consume me with fire
burn me whole
until Your love comes bubbling up
out of my heart
Set me as a seal on Your heart
a seal on Your arm
Your love is stronger than death
Jealousy, more cruel than the grave
*****************
I hope this touches you :)
