Lyrics
God Suffices (Prayer Of St. Teresa)*
let nothing afright thee
no thoughts disturb thee
all things are passing
God never moves
patient endurance
attaineth all things
he who has God in nothing is lacking
Alone, Alone
God suffices
let nothing afright thee
no wants distract thee
all things are passing
Love never dies
patient endurance
attaineth all things
she who has God in nothing is lacking
Alone, Alone
God suffices
*This song is based on a prayer found written in Latin on the wall of the cell of St. Teresa of Avilia upon her death in 1582.
