The sonnet, inspired by Song of Solomon 2:8 (KJV), “The voice of my beloved! behold, he cometh leaping upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills,” describes a Savior whose voice calls out across mountains and seas, leaping and skipping with uncontainable joy for His redeemed. He names them His beloved and treasure, delighting fiercely in those He has claimed. Each step and cry affirm His unwavering love and grace, declaring them His chosen ones, His soul’s desire, and the source of His eternal praise

His voice rings out, “My treasure, come to Me,”
O’er mountains high He leaps with eager stride,
“Beloved Mine,” He calls through earth and sea,
On hills He skips, His joy cannot subside.
A Savior’s love, so fierce, so uncontained,
Delights in us, His redeemed and His own,
Each bound a proof His heart has never waned,
Each cry a gem set in His royal throne.
The peaks resound with echoes of His glee,
“My chosen ones, My rapture you inspire,”
No distance dims the grace that sets us free,
He names us dear, His soul’s unbound desire.
His voice, His steps, proclaim through endless days,
We are His delight, His treasure, His praise.
