You can make us whole
Only you, Lord,
Can make us whole,
Only you, Lord,
Can save our soul.
Keep us at dawning,
Keep us at morning,
Keep us at sunset,
Keep us in darkness.
When our way is hard,
Be you, Lord, our guard,
When the way is steep
Keep us, Lord, keep.
When we are ill,
Protect us, Lord, still.
Only you, Lord,
Can make us whole,
Only you, Lord,
Can save our soul.
David Adam, Fire of the North.
Lord, forgive us,
for we are fragmented persons.
We go many directions a once.
We seek opposite goals:
we serve contradictory causes.
We mouth liberation, we live oppression.
We shout peace, we practise
violence and anarchy.
We shout justice, we walk in injustice.
We preach love, we practise hate.
Through your compassion
have mercy on us and make us whole.
Enable us to discern your voice
among the dissonant voices.
