"Did you honestly think by all this you could save the human traitor? You are giving me your life and saving no one. So much for love. … In that knowledge, despair and die." ~ Jadis, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (Disney/Walden 2005)
"And there came out a great drop of blood, redder than all the redness that you have ever seen or imagined…." ~ "The Healing of Harms", The Silver Chair
You are Mine, My own.
I called you, I drew you out
From the darkness grim
And your cold-hearted sin.
I rescued you, corrected you,
Showed you what mercy is.
I brought you back to light
And into you breathed new life.
You are Mine, My beloved.
The Foe can't touch you
For you are under Me
And I have set you free.
I offered Myself for you,
Freely gave my life:
Grace unmerited,
For you, my glory shed.
You are Mine, My child.
Pain, anguish, and death:
The cost of love was high,
But now you're forever Mine.
Child, hear My voice
And listen to My words:
My love is like a flood
And inscribed with My blood.
