Katherine Jenkins performs "And This Is My Beloved," a romantic song that celebrates the beauty and allure of a loved one. The lyrics use vivid imagery, comparing the beloved's eyes to dawn skies and petals, and their mouth to honey and spice. The song expresses how the beloved's presence brings music, mystery, and paradise. While it is not explicitly Christian in content, it is often associated with wedding contexts due to its themes of love and admiration. The song is a classical crossover piece, and its spiritual connection is subtle, focusing on human love rather than divine love.

Dawn�??s promising skies
Petals on a pool drifting
Imagine these in one pair of eyes
And this is my beloved
Strange spice from the south
Honey through the comb sifting
Imagine these in one eager mouth
And this is my beloved
And when he speaks and when he talks to me
Music! Mystery!
And when he moves and when he walks with me
Paradise comes suddenly near
All that can stir
All that can stun
All that�??s for the heart�??s lifting
Imagine these in one perfect one
And this is my beloved
And this is my beloved
Imagine these in one perfect one
And this is my beloved
And this is my beloved
