Beautiful Beulah

"Thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.... thou shalt be called Hephzibah [My Delight], and thy land, Beulah [My wife]: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married..... As a bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee" (Isaiah 62:2-5).

Behold, as a bridegroom has joy in his bride,
Our God shall rejoice over those who are His.
The land He calls Beulah is where we'll abide,
Where we shall behold Him and be where He is.

Beulah (My wife) and Hephzibah (Delight):
What beautiful names, O Lord, that You give
Your land and Your people, for which You will fight,
That we in Your presence forever may live.
