Ron Wiseman - Henaini


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference


Henaini, here I am, Henaini.
Here I am, Henaini, Henaini.
Genesis 22:1 - And it came to pass after
these things, that God did tempt Abraham,
and said unto him, Abraham: and he said,
Behold, here I am.
Isaiah 58:9-10 - Then shalt thou call, and
the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and
he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away
from the midst of thee the yoke, the
putting forth of the finger, and speaking
vanity; And if thou draw out thy soul to
the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul;
then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and
thy darkness be as the noon day:

What do you want of me?
What can I give to thee?
If there is more, more than I can be, Henaini.
 
For what am I next to thee?
I'm but a drop, a drop in the sea.
Psalm 39:5 - ehold, thou hast made .my days
as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing
before thee: verily every man at his best state
is altogether vanity. Selah.


But when you call, I will answer thee, Henaini.
Job 14:15 - Thou shalt call, and I will
answer thee: thou wilt have a desire to the
work of thine hands.
Jeremiah 33:3.- Call unto me, and I will
answer thee, and show thee great and mighty
things, which thou knowest not.


(chorus)
 

O Israel, your bride to be.
Revelation 21:2 - And I John saw the holy city,
new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of
heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her
husband.

She is calling, calling to me.
 

And I will answer, faithfully, Henaini.
Psalm 143:1 - Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear
to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer
me, and in thy righteousness.

If I must stand before my enemies
You alone are my security
And I will say as my fathers did before me, Henaini
For what am I next to thee?
What do I have that you, that you haven't given me?
So when you call, I will answer thee...
Henaini, Henaini.
1 Chronicles 29:14-16 - But who am I, and what
is my people, that we should be able to offer
so willingly after this sort? for all things
come of thee, and of thine own have we given
thee. For we are strangers before thee, and
sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on
the earth are as a shadow, and there is none
abiding. O LORD our God, all this store that we
have prepared to build thee an house for thine
holy name cometh of thine hand, and is all thine
own.
