himig heswita - when god seems absent كلمات الأغنية

many thousands of years ago
before our lord went back to the father
he promised us that he would never leave us
he promised that he would be with us until the end of the age
and so we believe that the lord is with us in spirit;
here, now, and for always
however, haven’t there been times in our lives when we actually felt
his absence more intensely than we believed in his abiding presence?
haven’t there been seasons unend when we actually sensed
we were going through all this, alone?
and don’t we sometimes feel that our lord of wisdom and
counsel, seems to have locked himself away behind divine silence?

what we perceive as a divine withdrawal leaves us wondering when this
dark cloud shall lift;
when pain and discomfort will no longer pile upon each other
while such times last
we realize the power that despair wields upon us, so that we say
“my god, my god, why have you abandoned me?”
we are no strangers to suffering
and a sense of abandonment, it brands painfully on our spirit
so when suffering and illness walk us to the edge of despair
this god with us, this son of god who promised to stay with us ’till
the end of time, he holds us, he reigns us in, and binds us to hope
yes, many times
he does seem to bind us with such fragile threads of small comfort
yet, we do not dare cut him loose and away for jesus
our lord, no stranger to suffering himself, is compassionate
so what is this silence all about?
we wish to believe that this silence is a time when emmanuel
actually suffers with us
and prays in us, in words beyond all understanding
