Turn away your eyes from me, for they overwhelm me ... -- Song of Solomon 6:5 (ESV). See also Psalm 27:4.
Story behind the song
In one of my worship sessions when I was one to one with Him, the Lord revealed to me His intense love. As I stared and adored Him, I saw His beautiful eyes, it was a beauty indescribable, beyond compare. He is so beautiful, I was so overwelmed by His love, I called out loudly 'Turn Your eyes from me for they have overcome me.' Through this experience I have savoured the intense love of the Lord. I wrote this song out of my longing and hunger for Him. Bless the Lord.
Lyrics
One thing have I desired of You Lord
That I will seek Your face
That I may dwell in Your house
All the days of my life
And behold the beauty of You Lord
I am my beloved and my beloved is mine
He feeds among the lilies
For you are beautiful
O my love divine
Turn Your eyes from me
For they have overcome me
You are beautiful, measureless,
Beauty beyond compare
Loveliness at the highest
No words can declare
Glorious, wonderful, absolute delight
Beautiful infinitely beautiful
O Lord.
