i hope that this is what you want.
My throbbing heart has become Your home, in my chest is Your dwelling place
I have left the world and its pleasures and abandoned all, so I may live with You
I have no thought nor opinion nor any desire but to follow You
And my father Jacob, I know his secret; I know now how he wrestled You
O kind-heart, how sweet are You, mighty above all, feared, O how glorious are you
O mighty One, with a whip in your palm and your overflowing love makes you cry and weep for us
The world couldn’t contain You, how small it is, how then can the heart befit You?
I have left the world and its pleasures and abandoned all, so I may live with You
I have left all Lord except You, In the sojourn of my life I have none but You.
And my thoughts I prevented from wandering, so wherever you are there my thoughts will be
I have forgotten family and friends, and also I forgot myself, in Your love
I have forgotten all in Your love, O the heart’s joy, so don’t forsake Your child
You are not far from my spirit that is in the calmness of silence await for Your call
Truly in heavens is your dwelling place, but every heart that lived in love is also your heaven
Here is my eye; I have closed it, from seeing all so I could see you
And likewise my ear, I have cleared it from chat of all people, so I could hear Your voice
