"And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a women clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars."

Revelation 12:1

The concept of a spiritual relationship between God and Man, like that of a marriage, is discussed many times in the scriptures. Many passages in the Old Testament characterize The nation of Israel as being like a Bride to him.

In the New testament this type of relationship is further developed in the concept of the” Church” becoming the Bride of Christ.

Within this context, this song looks forward to a future time when the “Church” is united with her husband and results in a joy that will extend into the ages of eternity.
