Once more do come
Once more do come and appear before me.Around me is all darkness and the flow of tears.
Once more do come and appear before me.
This heart of mine is now the garland of surrender.
Once more do come and appear before me.
This restless, wild, indomitable, dark vital breath of mine will be silent.
Once more do come and appear before me.
Do give me the right to worship You, You alone.
