poor bishop hooper – love (joseph) lyrics

[verse 1]
in the middle of the night
that’s always been when you set me right
sometimes i’m weary to close my eyes
i tremble at the thought of all that you could want this time
so come on spirit, would you get right to it?

[chorus]
oh, i think i’ve dreamed of this
before, seen glimpses in the mist

[verse 2]
“oh, son of david, do not be afraid
let this love befriend you like a desert to the rain
for the girl before you is one i’ve made
the simple bеauty that you’ve seen is still the one you’ll takе
it’s not at all what your diffidence is telling you to think”

[chorus]
“oh, i think you’ve dreamed of this
before, you just didn’t have the score”

[bridge]
“to the symphony of love that god’s been drawing up
and from his overflowing heart a piece that never ends
yet ends in eternity
and he’s folding you into a fatherhood
like no one could, to take a son that isn’t yours
adopt the one who will adopt the world
there will be no glory for you
all the glory will be given
to the son you’ll raise up
but i hate to say you’ll never see it”
[refrain]
his love (ooh)
his love (ooh)
his love (ooh)
his love (ooh)

[outro]
i know i’ve heard this too many times to tell
isaiah said it, “call him ‘immanuel'”
he’ll be with everyone, but i’ll have him somehow more
my hand shall feed his mouth as i partner with your favor
be a father to the one whose father is you
who knew i’d get to watch perfection grow up?
i’ve built things all my life, but never built love
i’ll do everything you command, and i thank you
god, i thank you
