281 Time
Verse 1
A lonely soul has traveled from afar,
probing the future, seeking the past,
toiling arduously, and pursuing a dream.
It knows not whence it comes or it goes,
born in tears and fading in despair.
Though trampled underfoot, it is still holding on.
Chorus 1
Your coming puts an end to afflicted life adrift.
I catch a sight of hope, and welcome the light of dawn.
I gaze into the misty distance, I catch a glimpse of Your shape.
That is the radiance, the radiance of Your face.
Verse 2
Yesterday, drifted in foreign land,
but today I’ve found my way back home.
Riddled with wounds, unlike human,
I lament life is a dream.
Chorus 2
Your coming puts an end to afflicted life adrift.
I am no longer lost, I’m no longer wandering.
My home I’m now within. Now I see Your white robe.
That is the radiance, the radiance of Your face.
Outro
Many cycles of rebirth, so many years of waiting;
now the Almighty has come.
The lonely soul found its way, and it’s no longer sad.
A dream of thousands of years.
