Raba'Ah Razak Poet Free verse

Why Do I Need You Lord

O Lord

When all mortals' love are tainted and momentary
I seek the glory of Yours
Pure and everlasting

O Lord

Show me the way to your divine love
Replace the uncertainty that is filled in my aching heart
With Your bountiful mercy and grace

O Lord

I don't need mortals' love as much as I need Yours
My heart belongs to You
And to You I shall return
