| When my heart was embittered
|
| and pierced within,
|
| when I found myself senseless
|
| and ignorant,
|
| You had taken hold of my right hand
|
| and made me continually yours.
|
| I am continually yours.
|
| I am yours, I am yours,
|
| like the sparrow in your hand,
|
| like the lilies of the land,
|
| I am yours.
|
| I am yours, I am yours,
|
| No one else do I desire,
|
| You have set my heart on fire,
|
| I am yours.
|
| And I am continually yours,
|
| Yes, I am continually yours.
|
| My flesh, my heart may fail within,
|
| riddled with scars of former sin.
|
| Nevertheless I will rise again,
|
| for I am continually yours,
|
| yes, I am continually yours.
|
| I am yours, I am yours,
|
| like the sparrow in your hand,
|
| like the lilies of the land,
|
| I am yours.
|
| I am yours, I am yours,
|
| no one else do I desire,
|
| you have set my heart on fire,
|
| I am yours.
|
| My crime and guilt, my dark and shame
|
| my finger pointing 'I'm to blame'
|
| are covered by your crimson stains
|
| and I am continually yours,
|
| yes, I am continually yours,
|
| I am continually yours. |
