Answer 1

Dear Suguna I have numerous favourite hymns.
But I wish to gift you a beautiful poignant very devotional Sain hymn because you are his devotee
The hymn is in hindi but trolls report it you know so I will transalte it to English

The true joy O Sain Nath is being near your lotus feet;
I urge that you let me spend each moment near your lotus feet

Let thy world become an enemy
let my life become a burden
Let death become a garland of my neck but let not my mind ever wander away from your lotus feet

Even though I may have to walk on thorns, even if I have to burn in fire
Even when difficulties surround me, even when darkness envelops my eyes
Let my mind not waver and let it remain at your lotus feet

Let your name be on my lips
Let your rememberance fill my night and days
O Sain let my mind be absorbed in your lotus feet.

Six Pada on Nirvana
I am not mind, wisdom, pride, and heart. Neither I am ear and tongue nor I am nose and eyes. Neither I am sky or earth nor I am power or wind. I am the eternal happiness or bliss state, I am Shiv, I am Shiv.||1||

I am not the state of being alive or the five type of Vayu. Neither I am the seven elements constituting the body (Dhatu) nor I am the five sheaths which invest the soul. Neither I am voice, hand, or leg nor I am the portion at the bottom of waist (anus or Linga). I am the eternal happiness or bliss state, I am Shiv, I am Shiv.||2||

I am not the state of envy and passion or the emotions of greed and attachment. Neither I am intoxication nor I am the emotion of jealousy. And I am not even the four Purushartha — Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha. I am the eternal happiness or bliss state, I am Shiv, I am Shiv.||3||

I am not Punya (good deed), Paap (Sin), Saukhya (friendship), or Dukha (Grief). Neither I am chants (Mantra) or Shrine (Teertha) nor I am the Veda or the sacrifice and oblation. Also, I am not the food, or the one that should be eaten, or the eater. I am eternal happiness or bliss state, I am Shiv, I am Shiv.||4||

Neither I am the fear of death nor I am the difference between races. Neither I am [any relation like] father, mother, nor I am born. Also, I am not a relative, a friend, a teacher (Guru), or a student (Shisya). I am the eternal happiness or bliss state, I am Shiv, I am Shiv.||5||

I am free from changes, and lack all the qualities and form. I envelope all forms from all sides and am beyond the sense-organs. I am always in the state of equality — there is no liberation (Mukti) or captivity (Bandha). I am the eternal happiness or bliss state, I am Shiv, I am Shiv.||6||

Answer 3

I get cold chills when a group of Christians sing
Amazing Grace with meaning. It is so beautiful.
The newer contemporary songs (7/11 songs) just
can't compete with the old hymns as they just repeat,
repeat, and repeat seven words eleven times.

Answer 4

I love the new contemporary hymns from HymnMorphosis. They took 15 standard Christian hymn and arranged them in contemporary musical styles. Very cool!

Answer 5

Any version of the Ave Maria........

Ave Maria, grazia plena, maria grazia plena, maria grazie plena
Ave, Ave dominus
Dominus te ***
Benedicta tu in mulieribus et benedictus
Et Benedictus fructus ventris
Ventris tui Jesus
Ave Maria..............I sing this a lot for weddings and funerals and recently for a Christening (Professional Opera Singer)
Also, Pieta Signore.........very dramatic and beautiful
(Buddhist Professional Opera Singer)

Answer 6

Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost
But now I'm found
Was blind, but now
I see

When we've been there
Ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've know less days
To sing God's praise
Than when we've first begun

I just love the song. 2D

Answer 7

Answer 10

Many... but some from shri Tulsidas i will write for you

"नहीं विद्या, नहीं बाहुबल.. . नहीं खरचन को दाम "
" तुलसी ऐसे दास की, पत राखो भगवान "

I am not educated i am not strong.. and i am poor. Hey Lord Rama only you can take care of such useless person

" सांई इतना दीजिये... जा में कुटंब समाय "
" मैं भी भूखा ना रहुं.... साधू भूखा ना जाये "

O my master give me as much money as much is suficient to take care of the family, neither i remain nor a sadhu coming to my house goes hungry

" सुत, धरा और लक्षमी...पापी के भी होय "
" संत समागम हरी कथा... तुलसी दुर्लभ दोय "

Children, properties and money...even a big sinner can have them.

But company of saints and listening to god's glories... is not in the luck of bad people... only Lucky one can have that
