This song was inspired by Job’s prayer of despondency  in Job 13: 20-28 and Job’s 6th Speech to Bildad where he trusts in his Redeemer in Job 19:25-27. 

Job’s prayer of despondency is one that makes me cry every time I read it. You can feel the heaviness weighing on Job in every word he utters, and many of us often share similar feelings to him although having endured much less. Despite this, Job continuously shows faith that his Redeemer lives and in that He will stand upon the Earth at last. Job will be able to see Him with his own eyes. 

The thought of that is beautiful, terrifying, and overwhelming - but a reminder that in our suffering, we cannot lose sight of our Redeemer. He is not dead, but alive - and one day, when He makes His triumphant return, we too will see Him with our own eyes.

Liturgy of the Faithful by St. Pope Kyrillos VI (Restored Audio)

1) I place my soul into your hands, my Lord Jesus Christ 
Lead me cause I depend on you, lead me and I'll serve you 
Please be my guide in every way, be my guard I won't go astray 
Sanctify my heart and my needs, until I see you Lord 

Refrain:
As you have always said O source of all goodness 
Come unto me O you weary, Come on to me and you'll find rest 
Come onto me I am the Way, I am the Truth and Life 

2) When my life gets filled with worries and darkness overwhelms 
The clouds will be dispersed away by you O Prince of Peace 
You are my shield you are my hope, you are my strength you are my goal 
You are the perfect love O Lord, of whom then shall I fear 

Refrain:
As you have always said O source of all goodness 
Come unto me O you weary, Come on to me and you'll find rest 
Come onto me I am the Way, I am the Truth and Life 

3) You are my shepherd I'll not want, lead me to still waters 
Restore my soul I'm calling you, lead me to righteousness 
Though I walk through the Death Valley, with you I will fear no evil 
You are my comfort staff and rod, all the days of my life 

Refrain:
As you have always said O source of all goodness 
Come unto me O you weary, Come on to me and you'll find rest 
Come onto me I am the Way, I am the Truth and Life 

4) Come take your cross and follow me, Fear not I am with thee 
Cheer up I've overcome the world, your tears I'll wipe away 
I showed you my love on the cross, and if your faithful unto death 
I will give you eternal life, come now and follow me

Refrain:
As you have always said O source of all goodness 
Come unto me O you weary, Come on to me and you'll find rest 
Come onto me I am the Way, I am the Truth and Life

I Place My Soul Into Your Hands | سلمت نفسي في يديك
