.

Can you hear it?
That is the chalice of my heart.
It overflows with love for You.
The seams want to burst and
The glass wants to shatter
Because Your love fills it.
Oh my Love, my Love!

My soul is shredding,
It is separating,
It can't hold itself together without You.

These tears that baptize my face,
They exist only because
Your love has flooded the delta of my heart
The flood has crushed the boats of greed,
It has uprooted the beach trees of pride.
Your ocean of wine has drenched everything.

I am drunk!
I am destitute!
I am lost and lonely!
The moon in her majesty,
Is my only companion.
She hears my cries and,
My wailing in the night.
I call out to You,
Oh my Love!
