2Oh, glorious One, why am I so cold?
Oh, Light of the world, why do I grow blind?
Oh, loving Father, why are we separated so?
What do I long for?
The awesome, miraculous, the Light
I want to see real Light
I want to remember what it was like to walk in the Light
Has my heart turned from Thee?
Have I become too taken by the world?
Oh, God! Don't leave me when I'm lost!
Don't take away the Light as I grope for the path
Do take away my frail heart and replace it with Yours.
Do take away my mind, flawed and tainted, and make it pure.
Oh my Father, please don't take Your Spirit from me.
Dont let me run from You!
Hide me from sin and sin from me.
Keep me and make me strong in Love.
Awaken my dulling mind.
Set holocausts ablaze in my heart.
Oh my Lord, let me bow to You only
Cast the false glitter of this world away
Be my Defender, Protector, my One
Oh my Father, be close to me
Let me live to see Your Wonders
Let me grow to do Your Will
Guide me as a lamb to Your Purpose
Teach me Obedience and Humility
Let me sit at Your feet and be cleansed
Let me be as white as snow in Your presence
Don't ever let me leave
Don't ever let me forget
Give me strength to remember
Strengthen me to teach
Enhearten me in my struggles
Give me strength to learn
Oh my Lord, make the cry of my heart, the action of my body!
Don't let me be a captive to this flesh
Renew Your words,
Speak to me, tell me Your Mysteries
