Zion

As a bride, blushing bides
 on the bed for the touch of her love to arrive
 Other passions call and loom
 but she will wait for her groom
 Just the same
 I am restless for you
 As the vagrant, dreams of vacant
 lands to plow, and a hearth to call home
 but each distance only fails him
 so he'll keep drifting through
 Just the same
 I am restless for you
 You loved me first
 and fully when nothing lovely existed
 All before then grew dim
 in the light of desire awakened
 All else be cursed
 I choose rather this thirst
 No man, no land
 no task for my hand ever soothes
 I stay restless for you
 All I am, was made for You and no other will do
 I stay restless for you
 You loved me first
 and fully when nothing lovely existed
 gifted grace til my heart
 could awaken, embrace, and return it
 All I see now
 every goodness, each beauty and blessing
 are but tremor and wake
 and stir me further to love and to longing
 Only for you, only for you
 does my soul wait
 do my bones ache
 I'll not be satisfied
 til my hopes and my eyes
 both alight on that view
 There leave longing behind
 I'll discard my desire
 when I 'm resting in you
 No man, no land
 no task for my hand ever soothes
 I stay restless for you
