Of all the things I wished for, by Traian Dorz | Lyrics

(Apasă aici pentru Română)


Of all the things I wished for
Once in my serene days
You fulfilled them
Jesus, when I got to know You.

Out of all the worries upon me
In times of full shortage,
Of all you unburdened me
Jesus, when I got to know you.

Out of all the fears I trembled for
In my years of wicked state,
Jesus, I don’t have any left
Ever since I united with You.

Out of all the joys I wanted
More bright and divine,
Jesus, all were overcome
By enduring with You.

Out of all dear longings I still hold on to
To fulfill them completely
The purest and most divine it is
To hide more in Yourself.

And the brightest thing I await for
In the eternal life that'll come,
Is the time when perfectly
Forever I'll be embraced in You.

Lyrics by Romanian poet Traian Dorz.
English translation by Poliana Raisa.
