Ruega por Nosotros
Miguel Aceves Mejía
Pray for Us
Lord, eternal God
before your altar today I come pleading
to pray for the soul of my beloved
whom death so cruelly took from me.
I know that your power is infinite
that you are the same with the poor and the rich
and that is why I seek comfort in you
for this withered heart.
If I am asleep, I dream of her
if I am awake, I see her
and wherever I go
her memory goes with me.
I spend the nights crying
crying through the nights
for me, the sun does not shine
I wander among shadows.
Lord, eternal God
before your altar I am here on my knees
she is gone and I want to die
forgive us, Lord, and pray for us.
