Give me an answer for those who reproach me,
And take not the word of Your truth from my mouth,
And I will give witness to Your testimony.
Forever and ever I live in Your love.
I will walk in the open, so free and so wide
And, even in deepest and darkest of night,
The moon and the stars cast Your light as reply.
Forever and ever I live in Your light.
And I will delight in Your words and Your edicts,
No matter what others may say about me,
No matter their taunts or their sneers or their tricks.
Forever and ever with You I’ll be free.
