O viiNaavatii

[Guest guest]

O viiNaavatii

Make me thy viiNa

And put me to use

May I sing forever

The glories of thy Lord

And the sweetness of thy love

 

Having Fashioned me

With a great care

Cast me not away

To perish in dust

A waste it will be

For I am thy child

Made in thy image

 

Let me adorn thy lap

And make me sing thy song

Tune my mind to thee

To be in sweet harmony

Let thy will be mine

And let thy will be done.
