Baptist
SCRIPTURE

"The Song of songs, which is Solomon`s. Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth; For thy love is better than wine. Thine oils have a goodly fragrance; Thy name is [as] oil poured forth; Therefore do the virgins love thee. Draw me; we will run after thee: The king hath brought me into his chambers; We will be glad and rejoice in thee; We will make mention of thy love more than of wine: Rightly do they love thee." — Song Of Solomon 1:1-4 (ASV)

The song of songs, which is Solomon's. Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for your love is better than wine. Because of the savour of your good ointments your name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love you. Draw me, we will run after you:

Still is love pleading, you see, but here it is the other side pleading for nearness, the lowly one crying for help to get nearer to the Heavenly Bridegroom: Draw me, we will run after you.
