You alone are my God,
and make me safe.
But, You do not seem to be listening.
How long, must I endure this emptiness?
Is everything really just a delusion?
Why does it feel like You ignore me?
Sometimes I feel neglected and all alone;
I even begin to wonder why you bother to listen to me.
Please, be merciful and hear my prayer.
I say with conviction, “Here I am.”
I need to rest assured in My Lady’s love,
I want to be safe and sound with Her.
The jealous around me ask,
“What good are you?”
I answer them with confidence,
“God fills my heart with joy
She provides me with fulfillment.
I sleep in peace.”
You alone are my God,
and make me safe.
