Enrapture me and capture me,
Wrap me safely in Your love
Hold me tight and keep me right,
With wisdom from above
Never let me stray from thee,
Lest I wish to die
Embrace me dearly in Your arms,
In the moments that I cry
Enrapture me and capture me,
Forever keep me safe
From this world of sin and shame,
Protect me from this hate
Never let me leave Your side,
Always keep me near
Bless me, nest me in Thy love,
Save my heart for what is dear
Enrapture me and capture me,
I shall always love Thee true
Forever do remind me,
Life is only found in You

Welcome! We are so glad you stopped by. Come Fill Your Cup is a group of Christian ladies dedicated to equipping women for study and service. We know you are busy and that life’s hectic pace pulls you in so many directions, but you can’t truly be the woman God desires unless you take time to fill your own cup…not with spa days (though we love a good spa!) or the latest novel…but with God’s Holy Word. We want to help you with that! Our goal is to reach you in the midst of your busy day and give you encouragement, education, and fellowship as you strive to live the life God has laid before you. Our prayer is that we can help fill your cup so that you, in turn, can overflow to all those around you. So, as we like to say…come fill your cup, and let it overflow!
Beautiful sentiment. Good job.
That’s beautiful! That sentiment’s exactly what I needed to hear right now… what a reminder of our need for God! Thanks for sharing your gift!
Thank you for this. It is a daily prayer for me.
Thank you for the beautiful poetry. I especially enjoyed the thought of: “Bless me, nest me in Thy love”. I could visually see the little babies safe in the nest.
