A Hymn of God's Words | God Puts His Hope Completely on Man

I

From the beginning until today,

it's only mankind who's had a way

to talk with God, converse with God.

Among all creatures, all living things,

it's only mankind

who words can bring

and talk with God, converse with God.

Since His management,

God has been waiting

for just one offering—

the heart of man,

that He may cleanse and equip it,

and make man

satisfying and loved by God,

man satisfying and loved by God.

II

With ears for listening

and eyes that see,

ideas and language, a will that's free,

man can hear God, can walk with God.

He can know God's will,

accept His task.

And God desires man, wants man

for His like-minded friend

who'll walk with Him.

Since His management,

God has been waiting

for just one offering—

the heart of man,

that He may cleanse and equip it,

and make man

satisfying and loved by God,

man satisfying and loved by God.

III

Oh God would make man love Him,

shun evil and revere Him.

This one thing He's awaiting

since all eternity.

Since His management,

God has been waiting

for just one offering—

the heart of man,

that He may cleanse and equip it,

and make man

satisfying and loved by God,

man satisfying and loved by God.
