Lyrics

Gurudeva #2

[Instrumental intro]

O Gurudeva

give one drop of mercy

pour your grace on me

Make me humbler

than a blade of grass

Give me strength

to bear all things

free my heart from pride

[Piano response]

Teach me how to

honor every soul

asking nothing in return

Then, O Master

I will sing the holy name

with a heart made pure and free

[Organ interlude]

When will your mercy

finally fall on me?

When will I be

blessed by you?

I have no power

I have no wisdom

I am helpless at your feet

Take me

take me as your own

[Piano response]

When I look within me

nothing can I find

Nothing that could make me

worthy of your grace

Only your compassion

only your compassion

is the shelter that I have

[Instrumental pause]

If you give no mercy

I will weep and weep

How can I go on

without your grace?

How can I go on

without your grace?

[Organ response]

O Gurudeva

give one drop of mercy

pour your grace on me

[Piano response]

Only your compassion

only your compassion

is the shelter that I have

[Softly]

Gurudeva

kripa bindu diya

koro ei dase

[Piano and organ outro]
