Odes of Solomon/Ode 37

When My Voice Reached God

¹ I stretched out my hands to the Lord,

and to the Most High I lifted up my voice,

² and I spoke with the lips of my heart,

and he heard me when my voice reached him.

³ His answer came in response to me,

which gave me the fruits of my labors,

⁴ and gave me rest in the Lord’s steadfast love.

Hallelujah!
