Tell Me, Who Do You Say That I Am
You hold us in Your gracious arms
when it is time for us to finally depart,
showing us the light to traverse safely
along the dark alleys of misery.
O, Lord of all, these humble words
flow out of the tormented heart,
for You give us the strength to bear
the pangs of our anguished lives.
You guide us with the divine beacon
across the sea of tempest to the shore
to reach the eternal abode of peace,
gleaming in ethereal bliss with Your glory.
O, Lord of all, you suffered for all of us
bearing silently the burden of the cross.
You give us the fortitude to face the agony
with unfailing faith in Your sovereign power.
You glow in the wilderness of our lives
like the omnipresent unfading pole star,
helping us discover the holiness of soul,
and realize the real meaning of living.
O, Lord of all, Your omnipotent shadow
escorts us negotiate the chasm of existence
to the end of our destined journey,
where in your sublime radiance we gleam.
