Model
Within your bedrooms closets
you did our trousseau bring
the garments fit for marriage
joining virgin to the King
Every thread hand woven
its tensile put to test
the secrets of your dressing
within inner chambers rests
Every article hand chosen
for their quality did seek
until was found the wardrobe
that would your spouse complete
Every gemstone found that's precious
does in treasure box reside
therein your light reflected
which will adorn your bride
Here stored is every value
where err' prized thing do keep
the apparel you have fashioned
to frame your bride complete
It's tailoring form fitted
garments exquisitely designed
to your patterns conformation
like you in heart and mind
their attire you've made flawless
the original design and form
where moth and rust can't corrupt
here Love's purity is worn
Luke 12:27 “Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin.
Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.
28 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and
tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe you—you of little faith!
1Pet 2:19 For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering
because they are conscious of God.20 But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating
for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is
commendable before God. 21 To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you,
leaving you a model, that you should follow in his steps.
