On My Bed Night After Night

On my bed night after night

I sought Him whom my soul loves.

I sought Him

but I found Him not

I found Him not...

I will rise now and go

About in the city

In the streets and in the squares.

I will seek Him whom my soul loves.

I sought Him

but found Him not.

The watchmen who go

About in the city found me

Have you seen Him

Whom my soul loves?

Scarcely had I passed them

When I found Him

Whom my soul loves

My soul loves!

I found Him whom my soul loves!

I held Him and would not let go.

Until I had brought Him

Into my mother’s house

Into the chamber

Of her who conceived me

My mother is grace

And I am a sinner saved by grace

Saved by grace.

I found Him

I found Him whom my soul loves

I held Him

I found Him.

I found Him.

My soul loves You

my Lord

my Lord.
