Oh, you bring me to life.
For I was once a dead withered  thing
Sleeping in the dust.
A pile of withered bones
as the dust blew
across my uncovered
And lifeless grave.
You drew near me
and you knew me not
But you took pity upon my soul.
For I had suffered, as you had suffered
Shed your blood
Upon these dry and dead bones.
And the blood
That ran through your flesh
dropped upon the ground
as though a heavy rain
and soaked into my bones
Upon my body
as it lay.
As flesh grew upon bone
and the breath of life
I felt once again.
And joy filled me
as the love from your body
flowing from your flesh
made me will again
made me to yearn and struggle
for your love that is so dear to me.
In my life I live an immortal life
for an everlasting fire of love for you
burns within my heart
for as long as forever shall be.
