Thank you, Francky for the correction.

I know it is lyrics, but I just can't understand why it was written "cum amorem tuum" instead of "cum amore tuo" (cum+ablativus!)? Grammatically it is not correct.

Efee, maybe you have an idea?

It should be "cum amore tuo". No way it could be correct...

A bridge for one of you:

"O Lord God
I flee for help to you
in this dificult time
I pour my tears
Consider our weakness
and let a man
join your love / or literally: to be mixed up in your love/"

Seigneur Dieu
Je m'en remets à toi
en ces temps difficiles
je verse mes larmes
Line 5 : I'm stuck on "consider", as I don't think the French "considère" is an accurate translation from the English "consider"notre faiblesse
et laisse un homme
vivre dans l'amour de toi (ou dans ton amour)
Last line is unclear as well, I don't see well verb "fusionner" to be employed here, and this is what "to be mixed up in..." means to me

sorry, I still can't translate accurately this is why I posted here.

Ah yes, there is a term that maybe would match the meaning for the last line, it is "communier"

Seigneur Dieu
Je m'en remets à Toi
en ces temps difficiles
je verse mes larmes
vois notre faiblesse
et laisse un homme
communier dans l'amour de Toi.

(I used "vois" from the French verb "voir", as God sees everything (well He's supposed to) so at the moment He sees someone or something, He already has considered the whole situation (right?) )-which is moreover much more handy for the translator, thanks God!

"Consider our weakness" or "look to our weakness" or "have regard for our weakness".

Thanks for the add of information, I think "vois" is ok here; but I'm still not satisfied with the last line, that is a bit heavy with "dans l'amour de Toi", it doesn't sound good at all... "communier avec Ton amour" would be better.
You'll have understood I'm not a specialist, as I'm not a "religious" person and not too much turned in liturgic texts

This would be the version I'd give. But maybe Lene or Hazal would do better

I believe your version is very good, Francky and you should make it official...
