The lyrics of song 36 from Gitanjali

This is my prayer to thee, my lordStrike, strike at the root of penury in my heart.
Give me the strength lightly to bear my
Joys and sorrows.
Give me the strength to make my love
Fruitful in service.
Give me the strength never to disown
The poor or bend my knees before insolent might .
Give me the strength to raise my mind
High above daily trifles.
And give me the strength to surrender
My strength to thy will with love.
