I Hear My Name*

Di ko na mabilang kung ilang ang nagtanong sa akin kung bakit gusto kong magpari. Di ko na rin mabilang kung paano ako nahirapang sagutin sila. Siguro sa pamamagitan ng kantang ito ay maituturo kahit paano ang misteryosong hamon sa tawag ng bokasyon.

Lord, I walked one cold night,
and heard the wind call my name.
I closed my ears still I heard the call
of the wind from within.

Lord, I’m weak and small.
What can I do for You, my Lord?

I fear to be called,
to behold Jerusalem awaiting me.

Lord, I heard my name,
and in shame I turned away.

But I felt so cold to be far from my Lord,
to be far from you, my Lord.

Lord, I hear my name.
Now I go before You, my Lord.

If it is Your will, let it be, let it be.
Let it be what You will.

Let me do Your will.

Let me do Your will.
