Song of Songs –There I Will Abide
I
And there I will abide
Abide seems to be a word
filled with soft meaning
and deep intent
I will abide
Belong, rest, take comfort, dwell,
I will abide
Withstand, endure, await, sojourn
Accepting without hesitation
I will abide
II
My love is my abode
His limbs pillars of fragrant cedar
To shield me in my rest
His arms are oaks of sinew and might
Silver is on his head
Burnished and gleaming
Sapphire are his eyes
More beautiful than the morning sky
His heart is of precious stones
More valuable than the kings stores
He calls my name
And I am safe
My love is my love
And there I will abide

I was going to say it almost had a scriptural quality to it – very nice verse.
