Paramahansa Yogananda. Oh, how I love that name.
Sending us all these sweet vibrations, setting our hearts aflame.
Telling us all to love the Mother more than we love ourselves.
Telling us that there is no other than Holy God Herself.
Paramahansa, beautiful pure white swan.
Paramahansa, your love is never gone.
Oh, Yogananda, teach us the way of bliss:
Sweet meditation, sweeter than any kiss.
Born in the land of world religions, you were a holy child.
Putting aside more childish passons, you were by God beguiled.
You had received the dispensation to unite East and West.
By showing us how true devotion lies in each human chest.
Paramahansa, beautiful pure white swan.
Paramahansa, your love is never gone.
Oh, Yogananda, teach us the way of bliss:
Sweet meditation, sweeter than any kiss.
How can we turn the world to wisdom when there is so much sin.
You gave us such a perfect answer, we simply turn within.
There, on the altar of devotion made by a single mind,
Pours out a love so pure and simple, it can change humankind.
Paramahansa, radiant rainbow will.
Paramahansa, your love is with us still.
O, Yogananda, devotee's going home
Sitting in silence, safe in the sound of Om.
Paramahansa Yogananda, you are a holy fire.
Realization of each human self is what you desire.
You are with Krishna and with Christ, and I want to be with you.
Spreading the Light of God to everyone who comes into view.
Paramahansa, radiant rainbow will.
Paramahansa, your love is with us still.
O, Yogananda, devotee's going home
Sitting in silence, safe in the soud of Om.
