தேவனே உம் கிருபைகளை நினைத்தே
அனுதினம் நான் உம்மை பாடிடுவேன்
அன்பை நான் எண்ணியே ஓயாமல்
துதித்திடுவேன்
சிறந்தவர் பெரியவர் உயர்ந்தவர்
நீர் அல்லவா
கண்மணி போல் என்னை காப்பவர்
நீர் அல்லவா
துரத்தப்பட்ட என்னை அருகில் கடந்துவந்து
அன்பாய் அணைத்து சேர்த்துகொண்டீரே
பாவம் நினையாமல் என்னை தூக்கினீரே
ஒவ்வொரு நாளும் என்னுடனே இருந்து
நடக்கும் வழியை எனக்கு போதிப்பவரே
என்மேல் கண்கள் வைத்து ஆலோசனை
தருகிறீர்
