Don’t go yet, I need your loving gaze
I need your arms to hold me in my place
I do not want to fall into the pit .
The dark night of the soul, the black abyss.
Without you here my heart falls down in grief.
There is no God in heaven there is no thief.
What is salvation worth when we’re alone?
When the heart of flesh turns into stone?
Jesus on the cross abandoned gone
With agony in the mind his work was done .
Was he happy underneath his pain?
We are not on earth for personal gain.
In the spring the bulbs push through the soil.
Like the worms and beetles we must toil in
How my heart sings
