Jesus, You are so beautiful
Your loveliness and righteousness
Surpass everything I have ever known
I am overtaken by Your love
I am romanced by Your favor
For You have made me worthy
Hold me, Jesus
I long to feel Your love
Give me an intimacy
I cry out to know Your awesome peace
I would do anything to reach out
And touch the hem of Your garment
Bring me to an unknown place
Gaze upon my heart and know my love
Hide me in the shadow of Your wings
Give me Your name and Your inheritance
And I shall give my heart to You
Accept my sacrifice
Wash me and make me beautiful
Among all the daughters, I will be fairest of them all
For You will pour Your Spirit upon me
Dwell in me, and I in You
Bring me to the quiet place
And minister to my lovesick heart
Capture me, Jesus, capture me.
