My Bridegroom

My Lord, my Bridegroom,
Lover of my soul,
Only Thou canst love me,
And make me pure and whole.

I wait for Thee daily,
To return for me, Thy bride,
Preparing as I wait --
Trying not to waste the time.

Come quickly, my Beloved!
The time is drawing near.
I look not to the future
With trembling and fear.
