Un Anhelo

When I could sing to you, I sang
As long as I could walk, I preached

With my hands and my lips in praise
And still, my Lord, I haven’t grown tired of loving you

This flesh doesn’t want to respond anymore
Strength and vigor have left me
But I can assure you, my Lord
That deep inside me, I always praise you

A longing keeps me steady without wavering
For all that you’ve promised me
I want to see your precious majesty
And dwell with you in a holy mansion

I’ve got my clothes ready, my Lord
My luggage is all packed up

I just wait for the moment to leave
Where I’ll enjoy what I’ve decided

I invite you to make your choice today
Recognize that this world is lost

If you keep going down the path you’re on
In the end, you’ll find only punishment

A longing keeps me steady without wavering
For all that you’ve promised me
I want to see your precious majesty
And dwell with you in a holy mansion
