Is This My Shepherd

Is this my Shepherd?
Standing alone?
Quietly knocking
On the door of my home

He is so patient
I opened the door
And became overwhelmed
By what I saw

A beautiful being
Warm tender sublime
'Oh do come in
Please stay for a time'

...May I share with you
Something of His beauty
Suddenly I was aware
I had failed my first duty

The look in His eyes
Told me He knew
That's why He'd come
To make me brand new...

...I shared a time
In His presence that day
How I longed for Him
To again come my way...

...I'll get my home tidy
Perfectly clean
Since He came to me
How long has it been?

...Have you seen a man
My beloved King
A holy being
Who makes my heart sing?

He came to my home
It was such a mess
I long for Him
In His presence I rest.

He is so wonderful
Do you know whom I mean?
In His presence I'm complete
May my home become clean.

...Then I became so sad
I fell on my knees
I give you my life
O visit me please.

A beautiful peace
Filled my being
Full consecration
In His Word I was seeing

...A removal van
Stopped at my home
They took away everything
I did panic and moan

A giant steam cleaner
Made everything New
I stood bewildered
Not quite knowing what to do.

...My home was re-arranged
In a beautiful way
I had to yield
Didn't have any say

Something had changed
Deep within my soul
I knew I was different
Renewed and whole

...Then a gentle
Tap on my door
He stood beside me
My soul stood in awe

He owned the key
Free access was His right
He beconned me
I followed with delight...

...We walked together
Silently by the stream
In Heavenly places
It did seem

How my soul loved Him
I knew He understood
What a perfect day
I felt content, oh so good.

How I longed to tell others
Of His tender warm love
How He treats me so gently
Giving me understanding from above.

What is His name
My Maker, I replied
But we know Him as Jesus
He gave me comfort when I cried.

To know Him is to Love Him
But our relationship is so new
I bask in His warmth
Like contented souls do.

...Another being
Came to my door
My soul for a time
Was wounded and sore

He ruined my garden
Tried to enter my home
But I chose to remain faithful
To my shepherd whom I'd known.

...When the trials were over
He stood by my side
My arm went through His
And with relief I cried

My bonding was complete
With my shepherd and King
My home is now refurbished
For everything
Was given to Him
That glorious day
When He knocked on my door
So may Elizabeth say...

...He shares with us lovingly
About His plan
And the ultimate victory
He has for man
And how He is preparing
His Bride for himself
Those who are willing
To give up The Self

This relationship
With Him has begun
He sacrificed His life
So that His Father's will was done...

...I call it a marriage
An intimate walk
Of sharing and caring
With not much talk

For in His presence
My soul is complete
And when I am tired
I rest at His feet...

...And in this relationship
I'm securely loved
I learn from my failures
With His Grace I am covered...

...May His beauty
Be radiated by those
Who walk in His presence
Wherever they go.
