I yearn to be near you

In places where angels' hymns resound, A fervent plea my soul has found,

O God, how I long to be near You,

In Your presence, my spirit feels new.

Like rivers seeking the vast sea,

My heart yearns for Your divinity,

In Your embrace, I find solace true, A sanctuary where my soul can renew.

As heavenly bodies that shimmer at night, Your words as radiance, guide my path so bright, O Jehovah God, Your love, a pillar strong, draws me closer, where I belong.

Through trials and tribulations faced, Your grace sustains me, undeterred and graced, In Your arms, I find refuge and rest,

A haven where my weary soul is blessed.

Oh, let me dwell in Your sacred abode, Where Your glory shines, a celestial ode, In Your presence, my spirit takes flight, Bathed in Your love, an eternal light.
