He Marches Forward

Who is this who is marching forward?
 Marching forward in royal robes, stained red?
Who is this who is marching forward?
Marching forward in greatness of strength?

"It is I," says the Lord.
"It is I, the Lord, who is mighty to save...
 It is I, dear one...it is I."

"I have trodden the winepress alone,
 I have trampled all your enemies, all your foes are under My feet.
 My robe reveals the victory."

"Your enemies, dear one, have been destroyed.
 Observe My scars, My wounds,
 My blood that was shed for your victory..."

"You are safe now...
 Safe from the proud oppressor,
Safe from the one who attempts to steal, kill and destroy."

"You have called...
 And I have marched forward.
 I stand before you now with victory!
 Victory that is yours because you are Mine,
 Victory that has been won with suffering love!"

"Precious one, I love to come...
 I love to fight for you,
 I love when you ask,
 I love to give you all you need..."

"Because I am in love with you,
 Because when you suffer, I suffer..."

"Be assured that My love will always rescue you...always save you,
 For My love for you will never end!"

Isaiah 63
