Be Mine - Ezekiel 16

When you were born, you were all alone Nobody washed you or carried you home Nobody wrapped you in swaddling cloths To the beasts of the field you were thrown I saw you as I was passing by Tiny and helpless, and ready to die I saw you struggling in your own blood And I couldn't just turn away So i stopped there And i called you And walked to your side And i took you And i fed you That you might not die And i kept you And i cared for you That someday you might Be mine Be mine I made you thrive like a plant in the field The wounds of your birth were finally healed I watched you bloom into maturity You looked like a beautiful queen You grew very beautiful under My care But still I could see you were naked and bare Again I passed by you, and then it was clear That your time was the time of love So i stopped there And I called you And walked to your side And I spread My Wing around you My beautiful bride And I made with You a covenant And from that day you were Mine You were mine I washed you with water, I clothed you with silk "I fed you with food rare and fine" You succeeded to royalty And your beauty was such That all nations could see you were Mine Your heart was exalted and lifted on high You trusted your beauty, forgot you were Mine You defiled yourself with whomever you chose Your covenant with Me you broke Forgetting the blood and the pain of your birth Forgetting the One who gave you your worth You turned to your idols of silver and gold I watched you turn away And I'm standing And I'm weeping With heartbroken cries And I'm calling And I'm pleading Oh, why would you die? And I'm knocking And I'm still hoping that someday you might be mine I will save you I will heal you and walk by your side I will clothe you in a garment of brilliant white I will come and take you home with Me Finally, when you were mine
