488. Lord, if it is Your Will
Lord, if it is Your Will,I shall love my enemies.
Lord, if it is Your Will,
I shall illumine my friends.
Lord, if it is Your Will,
I shall forgive my earthly existence.
Lord, if it is Your Will,
I shall live without You.
But
If it is Your Will
That I should equal You
And become another God,
Then
I shall cry around You,
I shall sigh within You,
I shall die before You.
Lord, give me only one boon:
First and last,
That You will remain my eternal Lord.
