Set me like a seal on your heart, like a seal on your arm
Song of Songs 8:6

As we honor the triduum of All Hollow's Eve, All Saints and All Souls. this song from Elizabeth Cunningham, one of my favorite authors and songwriters (you can buy the music below):

13. Resurrection Song

from The Passion of Mary Magdalen

Set me like a seal on your heart,

like a seal on your arm.

For love is strong as death,

passion as relentless as Sheol.

The flash of love is a flash of fire

a flame of Yahweh himself.

Love no flood can quench

no torrents drown.

For the river that flows from my heart is a flame

that will carry me over the seas

and I will unbind you from the tree

from the tamarisk tree and the oak

yes I will unbind you from the tree

the bare tree and the leafless one.

For love is as strong as death

passion relentless as Sheol.

No flood can quench my love

For I am the queen of all rivers

who makes the waters rise and recede

and I will seek you among the reeds

I will find you forever.

For mine is the power to remember

and I will re-member you.

I will kiss you with the kisses of my mouth

I will fill you with the breath of life.

Set me as a seal on your heart

like a seal on your arm

For love is as strong as death

passion as relentless as Sheol.

The flash of love is the flash of your fire

and you shall rise with the sun.
