Zion

By My Epic

Lyrics

As a bride, blushing bides on the bed for the touch of her love to arrive 

Other passions call and loom but she will wait for her groom 

Just the same

I am restless for You


As the vagrant, dreams of vacant lands to plow, and a hearth to call home

But each distance only fails him so he'll keep drifting through

Just the same

I am restless for You


You loved me first and fully when nothing lovely existed

all before then grew dim in the light of desire awakened

and all else be cursed 

I choose rather this thirst


No man, no land, no task for my hand ever soothes

I stay restless for You 

All I am, was made for You and no other will do 

So I stay restless for You 


You loved me first and fully when nothing lovely existed

And gifted grace til my heart could awaken, embrace, and return it

All I see now every goodness, each beauty and blessing

Are but tremor and wake and stir me further to love and to longing 


Only for you 

Does my soul wait

Do my bones ache


I'll not be satisfied

Till my hopes and my eyes

Both alight on that view


There leave longing behind

I'll discard my desire

When i'm resting in You
