Like a child left alone in the dark, I cry out to You, Son of David, taking refuge in the shadow of Your wings until the storms of destruction pass by. Though my soul is among lions who roar out that there is no salvation for me, my heart is steadfast and I sing these praises:

Jesus, sight for the blind!

Jesus, wealth for the beggar!

Jesus, harbor for those who are stormed!

Jesus, fortress for all who are besieged!

Jesus, Your glory is above the heavens!

Jesus, Your radiance fills the earth!

Jesus, exaltation of the transcendent Father!

Jesus, bestower of the life-giving Spirit!

Jesus, hear my cry when all others are deaf!

Jesus, call me to Your throne and save me!

Jesus, bottomless ocean of mercy!

Jesus, infinite firmament of truth!

Jesus, light to those in darkness, glory to You!
