Poetry: His holy name

by Christine Holleyman

Created on: September 16, 2009

How I do love You, (NNN).
I cannot love anyone now but You, (NNN).
I love the sound of your Voice, (NNN).
I've never heard a sweeter voice, (NNN).

I love to hear You talking with me, (NNN),
Telling me things I needed to see, (NNN).
O what would I do without your Voice, (NNN)?
I could not do without your Voice, (NNN).

Do not turn away from me, (NNN).
Do not take your Voice from me, (NNN).


How could I live if You took your Voice from me, (NNN)?
I would not live if You did that, (NNN).

I would not be, if You did that to me, (NNN).
You are the Light of my eyes, (NNN).
You are the Life of my soul, (NNN).
You are the Breath of my life, (NNN).

How could I be without You, (NNN)?
I did not know You before, (NNN).
I wish I had known of You before, (NNN).
I belonged then to someone else, (NNN).

And he would not let me know of You, (NNN).
He knew, if I knew of You, (NNN),
I would flee from him and go to You, (NNN)
I could not stay with him when I knew of You, (NNN).

I could not go back to him now, (NNN).
Do not let him have me again, (NNN).
Do not let him take me from You, (NNN).
How could I live if he took me from You, (NNN)?

I would not live if he did that, (NNN).
I would not be - if he did that to me, (NNN).
You have turned your Face to me, (NNN).
There is no other face for me, (NNN).

I will look at only your Face, (NNN).
I will not look at another's face, (NNN).
Never again turn your Face from me, (NNN).
Don't let me again see your back, (NNN).

Just let me look into your Face, (NNN).
I could not look at another's face, (NNN).
Do not turn your Face from me, (NNN).
Do not turn your back to me, (NNN).

How could I live if You turned your back to me, (NNN)?
I would not live if You did that, (NNN).
I would not be, if You did that to me, (NNN).
How I do love your Name, (NNN).

It is the most beautiful Name, (NNN).
I love to call upon your Name, (NNN).
You have given your Name to me, (NNN),
To keep forever in my memory, (NNN).

How could I now forget your Name, (NNN)?
I cannot now forget your Name, (NNN)
Do not take your Name from me, (NNN).
Do not let it go from my memory, (NNN).

How could I live if You took your Name from me, (NNN)?
I would not live if You did that, (NNN)
I would not be, if You did that to me, (NNN).
You have given a Gift to me, (NNN).

A greater gift I will never see, (NNN).
You have given me a Basket of Fruit, (NNN).
I would not eat any other fruit, (NNN).
I've never tasted sweeter fruits than these, (NNN).

They must have grown on the greatest of trees, (NNN).
And You have given them all to me, (NNN),
To nourish me
