DRAW ME NEARER. Today, I’ve come like a mud in water I have forsaken your commandments; I have cut trees to fix shelters; I have killed ants to have my sugar safe. I have disputed the elders’ opinion I have chew grins of malice I have come to put forth my waywardness. Papa, draw me nearer.

JERUSALEM
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!!
The land where purity dwells
In pleasant pastures realm
Where the divine arch angels
Fly on heaven’s chest.
The land where sacred gads are fixed
On the tower of the holy hills
Without darkness and devil’s mills
Where only saints can be reached.
Where loyalty supercedes worthy gold
And the hidden trespasses are unfold!
And there we see the faithful Job
On the verge of the city’s road.
In the midst of this pleasant land
Where we see the mooning cry
And the Radiant sunning rays
Singing praise of lullabies.
And there we can clearly see
The twinkle little stars
In bold and vibrant scenes
In closer miles to our sights
There we see the Baptist John
And sons of the most high God
The seven elders in accord
Singing songs in worship tongue.
And there we see Elijah
And the tale of Moses might
And the faithful Abraham
That serve with steady heart.
And there we need no light
And the glowing scintillant,
For our light is Jesus Christ
In our radiant faith that brights.
Jerusalem Jerusalem
And there is where justice reign
On the city pitiless Lane.
Where every of our acts will sowed
Shall stand to judge our souls.
