1) You wake me up
with Thy gracious smile
To
witness a new morn with a fresh sunrise
And one
more chance for me to realize
To mend
my guilty ways and guiles.
2) A billion times
you looked with self-same grace
A billion times I slipped and
went astray
You gave
me unsought so many days
Yet still
I fumbled and fell far behind the race.
3) My crooked mind
confined in darkest room
Did not
view Thee standing at the door
Due ways
to reach Thee, I find no more
Wake me,
Oh Lord, from this engulfing gloom.
4) So many times
You showed me means and ways
So many
years, months, nights and days ;
I could
not come out of this mysterious maze ;
Too
bright for me to see Thy wisdom’s rays.
5) I wonder at
Thy patience sublime
How
long dost Thou pursue this tedious game ?
We err so many
times and yet we blame
Unaware of Thy form, ever flowing time.
6) Our miseries
to Thee we attribute
Our
victories ourselves we proudly claim
We
roll in trivial pleasures, no noble aim ;
And
if we fail, we curse our destiny mute
7) Unaware of Thy omnipresence
We do so many sins losing our sense
Our
origin forgot, from whom and whence
We feel the woes of
hellish ignorance.
8) Without Thy
grace, oh Lord ! Our life is nothing
In
every form Thy glory shines so bright
Our sense-bound soul
can’t see Thy might
We
cling to our vain pleasures as everything.
9) Our
earthly bonds long-lasting we deem
About Thy
selfless Love, we never thought
We
turn to Thee, disillusioned when all is lost
Our lives mere shades before Thy eternity supreme.
10) Behind my
breath and flowing blood you dwell My eternal soul mate since creation ;
We did forget Thy touch losing discrimination
Enslaved like beasts by surrounding
magic spell.
11) Even in
death you show compassion sweet
Uplifting us from worldly woes and
bonds
Thy mercy shines like a soothing angel beyond
Thy motherly clasp we sense as You lovingly greet.
12) Only Thy
grace to break this Maya’s role
Only Thy grace to cross this magic maze
Only Thy grace to curb this sensual craze
Only Thy grace and help to reach my ultimate goal.
