“How long, O God, how long?
How long must I wait to see your face,
to feel your presence?
How long until I figure things out,
heal from my wounds, feel whole again?
How long must I live with these longings,
with no more than hints and guesses to go on?
Look on me and give me answers! Light up my eyes!
I put my trust in your love. I know
that you hold me in the arms of life
whether I feel it or not.
If trust and longing are all that I have,
then that is enough, and I will sing.”
