إحفظ حياتي ليكون

Representative Text

1 - إحفظ حياتي ليكونْ
تكريسها يا رب لكْ
واحفظني دوماً شاكراً
طول الزمان عملكْ

2 - واحفظ يدي مُحركاً
لها بحبك العظيمْ
واحفظ خُطى رجليَّ في
سلوكِ دَربكَ القويمْ

3 - صوتي احفظن مرنما
لسيدي طول المدى
وشفتيَّ احفظهما
لتُخبرا بذا الفدى

4 - إرادتي احفظ فهي لكْ
ليس مُرادي الآن لي
قلبي احفظن فيُمتلكْ
بحبكَ ربي العلي
