Pure Love

by Kelly Elliott

Why do You draw me, Lord,
Just to hold me at arm's length?
Can't I step into Your arms, Lord,
And from Your breast draw more strength?

But You hold me at a distance
Even though You bid me come;
With eyes of fire You search my being
In only You that look comes from.

May You find what You are searching for
In the window of my soul.
May it be pure love perfected
From Your gaze through eye's of coal.

Let me step into Your arms, Lord,
And lean my head upon Your breast.
Let my life merge into Your being,
Forever more to live at rest.
