Please Come Quickly
A Cry for Divine Presence: Please Come Quickly by Ethan Rittenhouse
Lyrics
I call out on your name and I know that you are there
I reach out to you, confident that you are present
But when I let my mind wander I notice we drift much further
However, when my thoughts wander, I sense a growing distance between us
I call out on your name and I know that you have time
I call on you, acknowledging your availability
But when I try it all my way
Yet, when I insist on doing things my own way
I notice it gets much harder
I observe that the challenges become more formidable
Oh Lord my God please come quickly
Expressing a plea for God to come quickly
If not today help me wait patiently
If not today, grant me the strength to wait patiently
Oh Lord my God please come quickly
Reiteration of the plea for God's swift arrival
Please come quickly
Repetition emphasizing the urgency of God's coming
Please come quickly
-Please come quickly
-Please come quickly
Continued emphasis on the plea for a quick arrival
There is no telling of what is to come
Acknowledgment of uncertainty about the future
But, your plan, it is perfect and I know that your word won't fail now
Confidence in God's perfect plan and trust in His unerring word
Oh Lord my God please come quickly
Reiteration of the plea for God to come quickly
If not today help me wait patiently
If not today, a request for patience while waiting
Yahweh Savior first and last You're my one hope
Affirmation of faith in God as the Savior, expressing trust and determination
Trust my God with all my heart
-And deep within I hide His word
-I won't give up
-Because I know the only name for the only throne
-Storms cannot prevail death is overcome
Assurance that storms and death are overcome, and victory lies with the Redeemer
Victory is in the hands of the Redeemer
-Yahweh Savior first and last You're my one hope trust my God with all my heart
Repetition of the affirmation of faith, trust, and determination in God
And deep within I hide His word
-I won't give up
-Because I know the only name for the only throne
-Please come quickly
Final plea for God to come quickly, reiterating the urgency of the request
Please come quickly
