Translation of the song lyrics Innbydelse - Extol

Innbydelse (original)

Jag kan aldri ta del I livet
Sorte ormer har bundet meg
Sjansen til l bryte ned
De sorger som tynger meg
Vil jeg aldri se, vil jeg aldri finne
Dypets stemme, lever her inne
Og sildrer ut I samvittighetslrse gater
Svarte takter, den eneste glede
Som slipper ut gjennom mine sprukne porter
Sett luken pl glrtt
Til ditt innerste kammer
Lpne for meg
La meg fylle hver sprike
Jeg lpner slusen, lar vannet strrmme inn
Vann ispedd spirer gror seg fast til min bunn
Tlken skygger for lyset, nlr skal den lette
Jesu invitasjon
Kan vcre lrsningen til dette
Husk det var ikke jeg
Som stjal det fredfulle, skinnende
Lyset der inne
En fullkommen overgivelse
Lar Herrens hellighet
Fylle mitt indre
Og Den Hellige Lnds kraft fornye
Min sjel, mitt sinn
Til Herren jeg lrftes opp

Innbydelse (translation)

I can never take part in life
Black worms have bound me
The chance to break down
The sorrows that weigh me down
I will never see, I will never find
The voice of the deep, lives in here
And trickles out into the streets of conscience
Black beats, the only joy
Which escapes through my cracked gates
Set the hatch to clear
To your innermost chamber
Open to me
Let me fill every gap
I open the lock, let the water flow in
Water interspersed with sprouts grows firmly to my bottom
The tlken shades the light, when it should lighten
Jesus' invitation
Can be the lesson for this
Remember it was not me
Who stole the peaceful, shiny
The light in there
A complete surrender
Lets the Lord's holiness
Fill my inner self
And renew the power of the Holy Land
My soul, my mind
To the Lord I am lifted up
