The Father loves His Son with love that’s total, fruitful, free

The Son then loves His Father just the same

The Love that’s shared between them’s bearing fruit, unceasingly (1)

So personal, that this Love IS a Person

“Spirit” by name

*

The Bridegroom loves His Bride with love that’s total, fruitful, free

Christ draws His Bride to love Him just the same

His Love bears fruit and grants a brand new name: God’s “Son” or “Daughter”

When Blood and Water both “rebirth” and wash

One’s sin and shame

*

A husband’s call: to love his wife as Jesus loves His Bride (2)

With love that’s total, faithful, fruitful, free

Their love bears many kinds of fruit, and sometimes, if God wills

Nine months will bring the need to give their love

A brand new name (3)
