Desesperado

The following is a song called "Desesperado" by Danilo Montero, a famous spanish-language worship leader. I like his music and I wanted to translate this song that has been speaking to me lately. The words aren't especially deep, but for some reason they strike me in a new way as I hear them in Spanish. I tried to keep the rhythm and some of the rhyme, so it should be singable to the origional tune.



I am hopeless and I'm looking for your love
I need you more and more
I want to say to you how much I love you Lord
I love you more and more

And I will walk in your truth,
and I'll run to your arms

Beneath your wings is where I'll be
and I will take your hand

I'll keep myself close to you
With no worries about what might happen

-So that's the song. Below is a youtube video with the song if you want to hear it. It's pretty good.
