Part III
Lord, do not hide your face
away from me, Lord my saviour. I am trembling with the fear of You. Lord, I am blessed with a wonderful companion, Your
Mother and mine as well. My earthly life will
be fade away at any time, like the breath stay for a moment ‘For I am your servant, son of your serving maid, a feeble man
with little time to live, with small understanding of justice and the laws’.
(Wis. 9: 5)
Lord, You turn Your Face to the
upright and never abandoned him in the wilderness. Lord, look at me and pour Your
Mercy on me a sinner. ‘For Yahweh is upright and
loves uprightness, the honest will ever see his face.’ (Ps. 11: 7)
Lord,
when I am in the way of holiness and with the love of you I could see you in
wonderful visions of Your mysteries ‘But I am my
uprightness will see your face, and when I awake I shall be filled with the
vision of you. (Ps. 17:15)
Lord, you always heard my
prayer and answered me. ‘For he has not despised nor
disregarded the poverty of the poor, has not turned away his face, but has
listened to the cry for help’ (Ps. 22: 24)
My saviour and my Lord do not
reject me from your kingdom, and do not forsake me.
‘Yahweh hear my voice as I cry, pity me answer me! Of you my heart
has said, ‘seek his face!’ Your face, Yahweh, I seek; do not turn away from me.
Do not thrust aside your servant in anger, without you I am helpless. Never
leave me; never forsake me, God my saviour.’(Ps. 27: 8-9)
Lord, fix your eyes on me and
make me shine in your presence. ‘Let your face shine
on your servant, save me in your faithful love’ (Ps. 31: 16)
Lord, you said to David you
never take away your eyes from him, Lord, instruct me and teach me your statues
to stay in your presence. ‘I shall instruct you and
teach you the way to go; I shall not take my eyes off you’ (Ps. 32: 8)
Yahweh’s eyes are always on the
upright one; those who are doing the will of God. Lord, where can we hide from
you, your eyes has the power of ten thousand folds of the light of Sun. Lord,
mould my heart to make a home for you.
‘From heaven Yahweh
looks down, he sees all the children of Adam,
From the place where
he sits he watches
All who do dwell on
the earth?
He alone moulds their
hearts,
He understands all
they do.’(Ps.33: 13-15)
Lord, I am fixing my eyes on
your mighty glory; send your light on me and save me. ‘Fix your gaze on Yahweh and your face will grow bright; you
will never hang your head in shame.’(Ps. 34: 5)
But
Lord, you fix your eyes on those who do evil. ‘But Yahweh’s face is set against those who do evil, to cut
off the memory of them from the earth.’(Ps. 34:16)
Lord, when I can see your face?
‘I thirst for
God, the living God; when shall I go to see the face of God?’(Ps. 42: 2)
Lord, do not hide your face
from me; otherwise I will lose my hope in You. ‘Why
do you turn face away, forgetting that we are poor and harassed?’(Ps. 44:24)
Lord, pardon my sins and
cleanse me from all evil I do. ‘Turn away your face from my sins, and wipe away all my
guilt.’(Ps. 51: 9)
Lord, your eyes are always
looking the men who are asking your mercy. Bless us Lord and fill our heart
with the thirst to seek you. Lord, open the heart and mind of your children to
seek you wholeheartedly. ‘God looks down from heaven
at the children of Adam, to see if single one is wise, a single one seeks
God.’(Ps. 53: 2).But to whom shall He looks? Lord, make me humble,
give me the true Godly repentance, and make my heart tremble by hearing Your
Holy Word. ‘But my eyes are drawn to the person of
humble and contrite spirit, who trembles at my word’ Is. 66.2. Lord
fills our heart with His fear and love. Lord, let your love pour on us and let
us shine like the bright stars in the sky. ‘God
Sabaoth, bring us back, let your face shine on us and we shall be safe.’(Ps.
80: 7, 80: 19)
