Prayer to Krsna

Thanks for never giving up on me

You've been in my heart for an eternity

Guiding, correcting so patiently

You never gave up on me

Though I've treated You impersonally

You've always loved me unconditionally

I've tried to enjoy living separately

But You never gave up on me

For aeons of time I turned my back on You

Trying to claim what belonged to You

Life after life, pretending I was You

But You never gave up on me, O Krsna

You saw I was tired of struggling alone

You sent Your devotee to bring me back home

Though his mercy's so great, my heart is still like stone

But please don't give up on me

Doo-doo-doo...

Thanks for leading me to Prabhupada

The external manifestation of God

From atheism and mayavada

He graciously rescued me

Thanks for descending as Your holy name

To give us a chance to taste krsna-prema

Unfortunately, I still don't have a taste

But please don't give up on me, O Krsna!

Thanks for giving me the chance to chant

The maha-mantra, although I can't

Seem to control my rascal mind just yet

But please don't give up on me, O Krsna!

Hare Krsna Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna Hare Hare

Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare...

Forgetting You, the most valuable jewel

Here I am in this place that's meant for passing stool

By broken pieces of colored glass I'm still fooled

But please don't give up, no please don't give up

Oh please don't give up on me

Doo-doo-doo...

Hare Krsna Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna Hare Hare

Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare...
