I COME TO THEE O LORD

So far, O Father, I wandered from Thee,
Yet you did not give up on me.
With all my evil and sinful ways,
I missed the presence of Thy loving grace.

To win this world, I ruined my soul.
I crossed the limit to achieve my goal.
By this time my state turned worse,
Nothing did I inherit other than a curse.

My heart yearned and sought for love.
I could not find it, so I looked above.
Nothing and no one could satisfy me.
At last, before you, I bowed my knee.

With all your mercy you embraced me,
And then I realized you were longing for me!
Such pleasure and sweetness filled my soul,
You are truly my ultimate goal.

Keep me, Lord, in Thy presence forever,
I have found Thee better late than never!
The rest of my life I’ll work for you,
For the harvest is plenty and the laborers are few.
