Strong but Marvelous

I only wanted to see Your face
Climb and hear You speak
But, Lord, I fell
Lift me up, my Father

Fulfill Your promises
Work in me, give me
A pure, holy love
Only Your love is able to be given

In darkness You found me
My Strength, my Water
My Joy, hide me
In the shadow of Your wings

My Love, don’t leave me
Purify me, eternal and holy are You
Strong enough to save me
Marvelous enough to forgive me

Bring me to where Your light
Shines with passion, with love
In Your arms, my Father
I want to stay forever

Who, Lord, except You
Can love me so?
Who dries my tears
And never leaves me alone?

I want to hear, want to see
Your voice, Your face

This poem was first made in portuguese, then translated into english just for you! As it's hard to keep a poem's original beauty in it's original language, this poem is not as good in english as it is in portuguese. I remember writing this on the way to church, just like "Horrible Heartache". I remember this one guy going with us in the car and I was wondering if he was looking at my poem. I'm not sure what inspired me to write this poem.
