Humanity’s strayed from the Almighty’s provision.

They don’t know why they live, but still fear death.

Without help or support, they still won’t close their eyes.

They live an ignoble life, no sense of their own souls.

You live without hope, like others, without aim.

It’s said the Holy One will save those

who suffer and long for His coming.

This has never come true in the unconscious ones,

but people yearn for it still.

The Almighty has mercy for those who suffer deeply,

and He’s fed up with them who lack consciousness.

For He has to wait too long for man’s answer.

He seeks your heart and spirit, He’ll give you food and water,

awaken your heart and spirit, quench your thirst and hunger.

When you feel the world’s cold or you’re weary,

don’t cry or be lost.

Almighty God, the Watcher, will embrace your return.

He watches by your side, waits for you to turn around,

hoping you’ll see that you came from God,

that you lost direction, lost consciousness,

acquiring a “father” at some unknown time,

and the Almighty has always watched over you,

waiting so long for your return.

He’s been watching, waiting for a reply, but no answer.

His standing watch is priceless,

for the sake of man’s heart and spirit.

He may watch forever, perhaps it’s at an end.

But you should know now where your heart and spirit are.

The Almighty has mercy for those who suffer deeply,

and He’s fed up with them who lack consciousness.

For He has to wait too long for man’s answer.

He seeks your heart and spirit, He’ll give you food and water,

awaken your heart and spirit, quench your thirst and hunger.
