Pa kite mwen, O bon Sovè !
Koute kriye mwen;
Kon ou okipe lèzòt yo,
Pa pase lwen mwen.

Kè
Sovè, Sovè,
Koute kriye mwen;
Kon ou okipe lèzòt yo,
Pa pase lwen mwen.

Devan twòn ou ban m padon ou,
Ban m yon dous frechè;
Men mwen koube nan prezans ou
Ede m pou mwen kwè.

Mwen konfye m sèl nan merit ou;
M ta gadew anfas;
Geri kè mwen ki nan tristès,
Kenbe m nan lagras.

Ou se sous pou konsole mwen,
Mwen vle ret fidèl;
Mwen renmen ou pase tout moun
Sou tè e nan syèl.

Pass me not, O gentle Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Refrain
Savior, Savior,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.

Let me at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief.

Trusting only in Thy merit,
Would I seek Thy face;
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.

Thou the Spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me;
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heaven but Thee?
