Your Song (Refrain Stanza) Poem by Gert Strydom

(after C. M. van den Heever)

Wherever I go the shadow of sin follows me
and only You are sanctified, noble, eternal and holy
and where daily I do wait upon Your pure words it's hard
where You the omnipotent Lord God do me a mere human regard,
where new words and verse-lines You do give constantly,
where my own humiliation, affliction and being treated wrong
are received in hankering after Your wondrously beautiful song,
where mere words by my human hands come to be
and only You are sanctified, noble, eternal and holy.
