Into my ears. | Into my ears. | ||
The summertime | The summertime agony of all— | ||
Reveal | Reveal it to me in Your songs, | ||
In Your songs. | In Your songs. | ||

Curtailed is the flow of rivers, | Curtailed is the flow of rivers, | ||
Steam rising into the air. | Steam rising into the air. | ||
Is this pain only mine or is it everyone's? | Is this pain only mine, or is it everyone's? | ||
Is this not Your affliction everywhere? | |||
Blades of grass want to wake, | Blades of grass want to wake, | ||
But they do not, fearing the heat. | But they do not, fearing the heat. | ||
Icebergs melt in the warmth, like tears. | Icebergs melt in the warmth, like tears. | ||
Is this pain only mine or is it everyone's? | Is this pain only mine, or is it everyone's? | ||
Is this not Your affliction everywhere? | |||
