It's so dark
I can not see
Driven out, in exhile

Punishment my own
That I can see
My tears fall from my cheek

But it's in this silence
That thou speaketh most
And this thus is my company

I ask thee, my Lord
Have mercy on me
I do not want to resent

Once I did have many richest
Love, family
My greatest blessings

Under Emmanuel's smile
I sighed proudly
Thanking my God

Such merry I had
To the skies I rose my hands
I thanked him humbly

But the Anti-Christ
To God he said
Blasphemy was my adoration

Hastened came now
A trial for I
All my richest gone at His hand

Thrown, left in the barrens
Rapt from it all
My cries rose up to the sky

Lobsters scurried
In my ears they whispered
To damn my God, they said

Refusing to listen
I looked to the sky
Giving my honest words

Lord, our Father
Who's in the skies
Bear up my prayer

To You my life
I have entrusted
Do with it what you will

I know I have sinned
That I don't deny
But please have mercy

My faith in You
Til the end it's firm
Nothing shall shake it

From the vowls of the abyss
An auroral light shone
My Lord saw my firmness
In his arms he took me

Abundant miracles
His love filled me
Once more I had
Riches greater than before

I love you, I adore you
For He never left me
In all time, all moments
My one and only God
