أبي إلهي إن أنا

Representative Text

1 أبي إلهي إن أنا
ضللتُ في هذي الدُّنى
هب أن أقولَ لتكنْ
مشيئتُكْ

2 فإن أسِرْ في حَلَكِ
فلا تدَعني أشتكي
لكن أُصَلّي لتكنْ
مشيئتُكْ

3 وإن دموعي انهملتْ
على رفاقٍ رحلتْ
أقُلْ إلهي لتكنْ
مشيئتُكْ

4 وإن عراني السَّقَمُ
وبي تمادي الألمُ
أقولُ ربي لتكنْ
مشيئتُكْ

5 وحينما أرحلُ عنْ
دار الشقاء والمِحَنْ
أشدو هناكَ لتكنْ
مشيئتُكْ
