he has a lover
in the bay
there he loves her
in the waves
of fearless wonder

you’re stronger

so much stronger
than the danger
you’re higher
so much higher
than the nature
all around me
ever drowning
in the crowning
of the Son

you are His son
given to love

she has a lover

yet men are pouring
men are warring
men are scoring
points
in games
they deem alluring
but they lost me
back at forty
and the boundary
climbs
to
glory
in the Heavens

can you reach that far

he got that far

to all the others
I have a lover
to all the stunners
I found a winner
can you engender
words
he whispers
in the starlight
write
letters of love
he glimmers
after midnight

he is a light

Heaven imploring
His Spirit amoré
I’m ever adoring
his every kiss

my King You won’t settle for less
my Jesus He gives the best

He’s jealous for me
the Rising Son
He’s zealous for me
the Fiery One
who sparks my love
in summer glows
and winter snow

you need to know

He likes it when I love Him more

don’t rival Him

unless you want a cosmic war

she has a Lover
He watches her
in the moonlit
sky
when he asks to dance
in the bluest
kind
of midnight
fashioned for her

walking on the water

she’s powerful
invaluable
untamable
inflammable
when
he gets
close
because he’s hotter
than the Leeward Coast

you know
you are

incredible
impeccable
sensational
unshakeable
when
He gets
close
because your angel
infuses an afterglow
your Father
He clothes you
in Royal robes
and every mountain
you know
the road that climbs
to
glory
diving for me
night and day

he has a lover in the bay
