by Emmanuel G G Yamba
The God of the good old book I’ve moved distances with my ears, seeing all of Your miracles Omnipresence You promised never to leave, but I feel lonelier than when I was in the world Omnipotent While You can’t grant my single request made with a burning heart My hands are tire of sowing seeds that remain dwarf in every soil I read Your word, fast and pray Yet You refuse to zip the mouth of mockery open towards me Where are you dear Lord Or you ran out of power that your garment’s hem can’t dry my issue I’m at the pool of Bethesda screaming, yes I wanna be made whole and like the blind man shouting, son of David, have mercy on me Eli Eli Lama Sabachthani With a broken heart and cracked voice, I say, let Your will be done.
