أنت عظيم البركات

Representative Text

1 أنت عظيم البركاتْ
يا رب للعبيدْ
رشدٌ وعونٌ وثباتْ
وملجأٌ وطيدْ

2 تُعني بحفظ الغُرَبا
في أبعد البلادْ
ينجونَ من ريح الوبا
والحرِّ والفسادْ

3 إذا طمى الموج الرفيعْ
وهاجت المياهْ
يدرون أنك السميعْ
ومصدرُ النجاهْ

4 بالأمر سكَّنت البحورْ
والريحَ يا جبارْ
فأنت سلطان الدهورْ
تقضي بما تختارْ

5 في شدة الخوف العظيمْ
نظلُّ آمنينْ
لأن فضلَك العميمْ
حصنٌ لنا حصينْ

6 ما دمتُ في قيد الحياهْ
قلبي يكون لكْ
والنفس في وقت الوفاهْ
تحل منزلَكْ
