Songs I can Relate To: "Beloved" by Tenth Avenue North (Love Letter)

Love letters are not written as much as they used to be, which is a shame. But when they are, they are that much more special. Think about the person you love most sending you a love letter. That would most likely be the best thing you have ever received, wouldn't it?

This song is a love letter written from God's perspective. Now he didn't say these exact words in the Bible, but this song is full of Bible truths! Jesus is asking us as His bride to be faithful to Him, to give Him all of our troubles and to not go looking for other "lovers" to satisfy.

Every time I listen to this song, I imagine Jesus standing in front of me with arms held out, ready to take me back even after all of my unfaithfulness to Him. His Love. Is. AMAZING!



Love of my life
Look deep in my eyes
There you will find what you need

And give me your life
The lust and the lies
And the past you're afraid I might see
You've been running away from me, yeah

You're my beloved lover
I'm yours
And Death shall not part us
It's you I died for
For better or worse
Forever we'll be
My love it unites us and it binds you to me
It's a mystery

Love of my life
Look deep in my eyes
There you will find what you need

I'm the giver of life
I'll clothe you in white
My immaculate bride you will be
Oh, come running home to me, yeah

You're my beloved lover
I'm yours
And Death shall not part us
It's you I died for
For better or worse
Forever we'll be
My love it unites us and it binds you to me, yeah

You've been a mistress, my wife
Chasing lovers that won't satisfy
Won't you let me make you my bride
You will drink of my lips and you'll taste new life

You're my beloved lover
I'm yours
And Death shall not part us
It's you I died for
For better or worse
Forever we'll be
My love it unites us and it binds you to me
It's a mystery.

"Beloved"
Tenth Avenue North
