When Jesus Woos His Bride Poem by Michael P. Johnson

Was someone else in love like this
Anyone made so free
What wondrous joy what total bliss
What else has God for me


To be made whole and so alive
Active in selfless thought
Where spirits prosper, souls can thrive
Where only truth is sought


Such ecstasy such peace divine
My very core is kissed
Why is it me, how is this mine
How can such love exist


What peace what joy what sweet romance
From deep within I sing
I shake inside I even dance
What more can Jesus bring


What more can Heaven wake inside
What more can Jesus pour
What more awaits His chosen bride
Beyond our Father’s Door


What treasures wait on hallowed ground
What else has God on high
When all this love through Christ I’ve found
Before I even die


The world asks questions every day
Can Heaven offer more
What happens when we pass away
When life walks out the door


In Christ one thing I know is true
This love I feel in life
This wondrous joy is meant for you
As Jesus loyal wife
