Your Promise.
Posted by Olaide (Fort Collins, United States) on 3 August 2007 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.
In the night I remember your name, O LORD, and I will keep your law. This has been my practice: I obey your precepts. You are my portion, O LORD; I have promised to obey your words. I have sought your face with all my heart; be gracious to me according to your promise.

Nice composition. No... very nice. And you didn't miss a detail -- opening to the Song of Songs is just perfect. Blessings.

I'm not Catholic, Olaide, but this reminds me of the vows a nun might make when she enters the novitiate. THAT kind of marriage!
