To remember
You, O Lord, is the sweetest thing of all.
Because You
are good and Your mercy endures forever
Let my soul
repeat it with all gladness and joy
Immensely
touched by Your awesome greatness
Now my heart
sings praises to Your Holy Name
You have
made me out of the dust
And crown me
with life and power
I am
designed for Your joy and pleasure
That I might
find joy and pleasure in You, Lord
Behold now,
I am eating swine’s crumbs
In your
houses You have treated me with such love
Nothing is
lacking from Your goodness
But now, I
am in a strange land
Toiling with
sweats in my brow
Weary and
weeping in the scorching heat
But,
remembering You my soul runs like a bride toward the groom
You have
loved, have been loving us with greatest love
Purest of
all
So, to
remember You and Your loving-kindness is the sweetest of all
How even
sweeter is to be remembered by You O Lord,
You have
blessed even the roughest rock to bring forth fresh water...
The dead and
stiff stick
To blossom
the flowers; so beautiful and fragrant
And You showered
the dessert with bountiful manna
Your love,
Lord
Let me not forget.
And make my
heart to return whole-heartedly
To You
And once
again enjoy that sweetest feast
And the company
of the greatest mystery
When heavens
meets earth
