It is time for the set apart bride
to step out and show herself
Her season of hiding is over
Trained in obscurity
behind the veil
She has much to say!
She has much to do!
Much to impart!
Her mouth a container
of His oil!
The road she walked was
hard and alone
Many days spent on her knees
She could give up, but she never did
The wilderness created
for her demise
Papa used to train her to
be His skillful bride
She remember the shock
and gut-wrenching pain
When Papa summoned her
to the wilderness
Torn between her flesh and
the agonising pain
She could not say “no”
to His request
She could not settle for a
mediocre life
Religion could no longer
box her in
She wants to leave a legacy
of pleasing her King
Her love for Papa made
her hungry for more
She was made to go higher
and deeper with Him
In the shadow of Papa you
will find her
Drinking from the depths of
His heart
Many were summoned,
few answered the Call
She laid down her dreams
to follow His lead
It was never about her or
even her pain
It was about answering
the most important Call
The set apart ones who said yes
to the Call
Speak the same language
They mirror Papa’s heart
Dead to self, they no longer live
Forever ruined by Love
He knew beforehand the training
she needed to go through
Painful processes,
but she passed all the tests
Looking back over the journey
of becoming His bride
She is no longer the scared,
voiceless girl
The wilderness made her fearless
She discovered her purpose
in the midst of her mess
She discovered her strength
in the midst of every demon
coming for her
She discovered her identity
in Papa’s never ending
love for her
Different journeys we are on
One destination we will reach
In the middle of Papa’s heart
we will meet
We could and would never
say “no” to the Call.
