In Your Temple O Lord

[REFRAIN]
In your temple O' Lord you have raised me
For my tongue, you have taught me melody
My God since birth it's You I desire
From pains of this world I have tired

በቤተ መቅደስህ ያሳደከኝ፤
ለአፌ ጥበብን ያስተማርከኝ፤
የልጅነቴ አምላክ ወዴት አለህ፤
በዚህ ዓለም ሀሳብ ክንዴ ዛለ፤

[VERSE 1]
My home is a poorly made creation
Quivering it is the foundation
From the strength of my foes I'm exhausted
Alone I'm no longer supported

[REFRAIN]
In your temple O' Lord you have raised me
For my tongue, you have taught me melody
My God since birth it's You I desire
From pains of this world I have tired

[VERSE 2]
Wasteful I have become rebellious
My sins against You are numerous
Clashing spiritually my path was blurred
Who can reunite me with your Word

[REFRAIN]
In your temple O' Lord you have raised me
For my tongue, you have taught me melody
My God since birth it's You I desire
From pains of this world I have tired

[VERSE 3]
You're the peace that I long for all my years
I've written you in my heart with tears
The temptations of this world have chained me
Restore me O Lord and hear my plea

[REFRAIN]
In your temple O' Lord you have raised me
For my tongue, you have taught me melody
My God since birth it's You I desire
From pains of this world I have tired

[VERSE 4]
Rebels enter Your home though unworthy
Touched by your love they receive mercy
From them your kind embrace did not depart
Your warm compassion melted their heart

[REFRAIN]
In your temple O' Lord you have raised me
For my tongue, you have taught me melody
My God since birth it's You I desire
From pains of this world I have tired

በቤተ መቅደስህ ያሳደከኝ፤
ለአፌ ጥበብን ያስተማርከኝ፤
የልጅነቴ አምላክ ወዴት አለህ፤
