"I AM"
(C.D./Ray Lenard)
(918)827-2452/18875 So Pickett Rd; Mounds Oklahoma 74047
Her father was an Amorite; her mother an Hittite
None eye took pity on her plight
Cast out in the field in the day she was born
Left, forsaken, and forlorn
He passed by and saw her polluted in her own blood
Behold, her time was the time of love
He covered her nakedness and took her as His own
He loved her with love she'd never known
He crowned her and sat her on the throne
How can she forget?
His heart laments,
I AM
the One who first loved you
I AM
the Husband you knew
I AM
the One worthy of you
I AM
Faithful and True
I AM
the One who delivered you out of Pharaoh's hand
I gave you the Promised Land
I AM.
With her beauty that's His
She left
"How shall I pardon thee this?"
He says ... as He says,
I AM
the One who first loved you
I AM
the Husband you knew
I AM
the One worthy of you
I AM
Faithful and True
I AM
the One who delivered you out of Pharaoh's hand
I gave you the Promised Land
I AM.
The children borne with Him
She sacrificed in sin
He weeps
Though His pain is deep
His promise He shall keep
As He says,
I AM
the One who first loved you
I AM
the Husband you knew
I AM
the One worthy of you
I AM
Faithful and True
I AM
the One who delivered you out of Pharaoh's hand
I gave you the Promised Land
I AM.
