Why Do We?

as Jesus' bride we have access to His power,
in full, in everything, in every way, for every hour.
so why do we live as a defeated and lonely bride,
whose lover is weak and seldom by her side?

as Jesus' bride we have access to His power,
in full, in everything, every way, He's our savior.
so why do we live as a bride to sin enslave?
isn't our lover the one who's mighty to save?!

as Jesus' bride we have access to His power,
in full, in everything, every way, He's our anchor.
so why do we live in fear of the storms daily?
isn't our lover the one who has all authority?

as Jesus' bride we have access to His power,
in full, in everything, every way, He doesn't falter.
so why do we live as a bride unsure and mope?
hasn't our lover not given us an assured hope?

as Jesus' bride we have access to His power,
in full, in everything, every way, He's our lover.
so why do we put ourselves in the way of harm,
instead of snuggling and staying in our lover's arm?

as Jesus' bride we have access to His power,
in full, in everything, every way, for every hour.
now is the time to stand and wholly decide,
to surrender all so we can live as His bride.
