Lyrics
For God alone my soul waits in silence.
He is my Rock; I'll not be moved!
He is my fortress and my salvation.
Lo, He is my rock and my salvation.
How long will you set upon a man, all of you?
Like a leaning wall, a broken fence?
God has spoken and I have heard his voice:
"Power belong to Me
who am endless and timeless,
the Alpha and Omega --
and steadfast Love!"
Oh beloved ones, trust in him always!
Pour our your heart to him as to a tender mother.
And in his mighty arms, he will embrace you -
hide you in his cloak.
Alleluia!
