One only is worthy




One only is worthy,      
and we know it,      
and we know Him.      

So as we go suffering as He suffers,      
rejoicing as He rejoices,      
let's keep following Him,      
and decide to do now and always      
exactly what He asks,      

no matter what it looks like,      
no matter whom it may offend,      
no matter what it feels like,      
but without malice,      
without superiority,      
without resentment.      

This way is the hardest      
because it is the Cross,      
and it is the lightest      
because it is Jesus.      

And to be at His side,      
no matter what happens to us by day or night,      
is why we live.      
— Romanós
