This week I was inspired when a dear friend shared with me a revelation he had from the Song of Solomon…in chapter 2 the maiden cries, “The voice of my Beloved! Behold, He comes leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills…My beloved spoke and said to me, ‘Rise, my love, my fair one, and come away.’” This speaks of the victorious Jesus effortlessly overcoming obstacles and then inviting her to conquer her fears and come with Him to the high places of maturity in love. As I was thinking upon the beauty of this invitation, my heart was overcome with the desire to let go of my fears and fall into the strong arms of the Lord, realizing that I am willing to do whatever it takes to be with Him where He is. So I wrote a song. I posted it mostly for my mom (hi Mom!), but I hope you enjoy it too. Just click on the title to listen, and read the lyrics and references below. Have a blessed day!
I will arise and I will go with You (SOS 3:2)
Skipping over mountains and hills (SOS 2:8)
Leaving all my fears behind
For I hear Your voice warm and sweet
Echoing off all those mountains saying
Come, arise my love (SOS 2:10)
And we will run together (SOS 1:4)
I want to be with You where You are (John 17:24)
I want to be with You where You are
So I will make my way (SOS 4:6)
Up the mountain of myrrh and the hill of frankincense
I will arise and I will go with You
Skipping over mountains and hills
Leaving all my fears behind
So we can run together
And we will run together
