A hymn written by Joseph Irons in Zion's Hymns. (in common meter)
"Betrothed to Christ"
1. I sing the everlasting love
Of Jesus to His bride,
The bond of union form'd above,
Which none can put aside.
2. He lov'd and chose her for His own,
Amazing act of grace!
She loves and bows before His throne,
When He reveals His face.
3. Yes, He betroth'd His church in love,
And will not change His mind;
Nor can He once unfaithful prove,
He's ever just and kind.
4. Delightful union! - happy bride!
Christ and His church are one;
'Tis His to cherish and provide,
Her life is Christ alone.
