My Lord, so close art thou to me and yet so far
Hearken to my pleading voice; have mercy and compassion on me
I search for thee constantly,
Hearken to my pleading voice; have mercy and compassion on me
My thoughts go out unto thee; my acts as well
Hearken to my pleading voice; have mercy and compassion on me
My lord, My Lord, do not abandon me
Hearken to my pleading voice; ;have mercy and compassion on me
