Lamentations 1:6-7

6 All the splendor has departed from the Daughter of Zion. Her princes are like deer that find no pasture; in weakness they have fled before the pursuer.
7 In the days of her affliction and wandering Jerusalem remembers all the treasures that were hers in days of old. When her people fell into enemy hands, there was no one to help her. Her enemies looked at her and laughed at her destruction.

I miss the vision of a white fortress on a hill,

its adamency, its strength,

the hope it gave to men.

I miss the splendour of Your presence,

my source of strength, my source of joy

I miss Your embrace, they love, the peace, the joy, the hope You gave me

I miss the tears i shed, tears which You stored up and treasured.

I miss the sound of Your voice, as i communed with You everyday.

Jesus, take me back in

Dun be far off anymore,

come and take me, quickly
