English Christian Song | "Who Can Understand God's Heart?"

October 28, 2024

I

Having come onto the earth, God keeps His silence.

No matter how cruel people become, God does not take it to heart,

but only keeps doing the work He needs to do

so as to fulfill the greater commission

that the heavenly Father entrusted to Him.

Who among you has recognized God's loveliness?

Who shows more consideration

for the burden of God the Father than does His Son?

Who is able to understand the will of God the Father?

Who is able to understand the will of God the Father?

II

The Spirit of God the Father in heaven is often troubled,

and His Son on earth prays constantly for God the Father's will,

worrying His heart to pieces.

Who knows of the love of God the Father for His Son?

Who knows the heart with which the beloved Son misses God the Father?

Torn between heaven and earth,

the two are constantly gazing after each other from afar,

following one another in Spirit.

Oh mankind! When will you be considerate of God's heart?

When will you understand God's intention, understand God's intention?

III

Father and Son are dependent on each other;

why endure separation between heaven and earth?

The Father loves His Son as the Son loves His Father.

Why must the Father wait with such deep and painful longing for the Son?

They may not have been separated for long,

yet who knows how many days and nights,

the Father has been yearning with painful longing,

and how long He has been pining for His beloved Son's quick return?

He observes, He sits in quietude, and He waits;

there is nothing He does

that's not for the sake of His beloved Son's quick return.

The Son who has wandered to the ends of the earth: when will They be reunited?

IV

Even though, once reunited, They will be together for eternity,

how could He endure being separated for thousands of days and nights

between heaven and earth?

On earth, God experiences the worldly hardships of humans.

God is innocent, God is innocent,

so why should He be made to endure the same suffering as man?

Who can understand God's heart? Who can understand God's heart?

God gives man too much, God gives man too much;

how can man adequately repay God's heart?

How can man adequately repay God's heart?
