EXPLANATION OF THE GLOSSING SYSTEM
(to understand how I describe the signs in this translation).
Refrain: ||: ME LOVE (2h)YOU FOREVER-AND-EVER.
ME SUMMON, NOW (2h)YOU MINE. :||
1. SEARCH-FOR THE-rt LORD, REALLY-WANT SEE HIS-rt FACE:
HE-rt WILL BRING (2h)YOU LIGHT AND PEACE. Refrain
2. SEARCH-FOR THE-rt LORD, REALLY-WANT SEE HIS-rt FACE:
HE-rt WILL BRING (2h)YOU JOY AND HOPE. Refrain
3. SEARCH-FOR THE-rt LORD, REALLY-WANT SEE HIS-rt FACE:
HE-rt WILL BRING LOVE, TAKE-CARE-OF (2h)YOU. Refrain
Notes: The signs between "||:" and ":||" are to be repeated.
ME - Underlined words are honorific indices ("indexes"), using the FT of the upturned palm to indicate who is being honored.
FOREVER-AND-EVER - ALWAYS + DH [Y], PO > signer, FO up, swings outwards with PO turning away. With DH still held in its final position, NDH [Y], PO > signer, FO up, swings outwards with PO turning away.
REALLY-WANT - WANT but shaken back and forth to show intensity.
JOY - Start with the sign STAND and repeatedly and rapidly raise and lower the DH while curling the FT to show a person jumping.
