Lè M Santi-m Atriste

1.
Lè m santi-m atriste
Sou chemen lavi sa a
Lè tout bagay parèt nwa
Lè ou pa gen espwa
M konn vle dekouraje
E menm demisyone
Si se pa t ansyen wòch la
M ta abandone.

Kè:
O, o, ansyen wòch la
Ou menm ki pa janm chanje
O, o, ansyen wòch la
Kache m jiskaske lafen.

2.
Dlo nan je ak kè kontan
Sou chemen lavi sa a
Pa gen twò gwo espwa
Pou separe youn ak lòt
Si se pa t ansyen wòch la
Kijan m ta ka souri
Nan yon monn kouvri ak ògèy
M ta dezespere.

3.
Kache m, kache m souple
Anba manto lagras la
Menm lè pye m ta vle glise
Tanpri, pa kite m tonbe
Ou se yon ranpa pou nanm mwen
Ou se sous konsolasyon-m
M pa gen lòt apui
Kilòt pi bon zanmi.

When I Feel Troubled

1.
When I feel troubled
On this life’s journey
When everything looks dark
When I’ve lost all hope
I often want to give up
And even quit it all
If it weren’t for the solid rock
I would have abandoned.

Chorus:
Oh, oh, the Solid Rock,
You who never change,
Oh, oh, the Solid Rock,
Hide me until the end.

2.
Tears in my eyes, with joy in my heart,
On this path of life,
There is no hope too big
To separate one from another.
If it weren’t for the Solid Rock,
How could I smile?
In a world covered in pride,
I would have despaired.

3.
Hide me, hide me please,
Under the mantle of grace,
Even if my foot should slip,
Please, don’t let me fall.
You are a fortress for my soul,
You are my source of comfort,
I have no other support,
No better friend than You.
