I love you

I love you, Lord;
Please visit me,
Until I am your dwelling-place.

I love you, Lord;
Repose in me,
Until I am your quiet space.

I love you, Lord;
Abide in me,
Until my words 
express your grace.

I love you, Lord;
Reside in me,
Until my arms give your embrace.

I love you, Lord;
Remain in me,
Until my eyes reflect your face.
