كما أنا لا حق لي

Representative Text

1- كما أنا لا حقَّ لي
إلى بدمك الغالي
وإنكَ دعوتني
يا حمل اللهِ آتي

كما أنا بلا انتظارْ
لأحمي نفسي من العارْ
لدمك ماحي الأوزارْ
يا حمل اللهِ آتي

2- كما أنا أعمى فقيرْ
إليك حتى أستنيرْ
وأُوهَب الغِنى الكثيرْ
يا حمل اللهِ آتي

3- كما أنا تقبلُني
من ضيقتي تفرِجُني
وللحمى تُدخِلُني
يا حمل اللهِ آتي

4- كما أنا فحبُّكَ
أعاد فتحَ بابكَ
وإذ غدوت ملككا
يا حمل اللهِ آتي
