My heart is ready, O God, my heart is ready.
Awaken my soul,
may its unified beat,
whether joyful or troubled,
forever remain steady.
Let my words be few;
my vow be not delayed
let me speak with Your breath
and fulfill the prayed.
My eyes are fixed, O God, my eyes are fixed.
Awaken my courage,
may it illuminate doubt
so that I might always
run in Your midst.
I would not claim to have succeeded,
to be perfect in my steps,
but with You, I will conquer
the race that stains the path ahead.
My ears are opened, O God, my ears are opened.
Awaken my patience,
may I forever remember
it is Your time, not mine
that heals the broken.
You are my fruitful tree,
I am Your running water;
I will wait for Your fruit,
resting in green leaves that never alter.
My lips are ready, O God, my lips are ready.
Awaken my cup,
let me be the water
that satiates souls
burdened and heavy.
Your blessings bestowed upon all;
the little no less than the great
I return lent good works,
as true life, I await.
