Jezu Mhaka Tuji Goroz ( Lord Jesus, I need you) An ardent hymn in Konkani illustrates our great need for Him.
Jesus said to Martha, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" "Yes, Lord," she told him, "I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

Jezu, mhaka Tuji goroz
Jesus, I am in need of you
sukê zomnik zoxem udok,
like a parched land needing water
ujea-diveak boll bizlechem,
a lighted lamp needing fuel
iontrak cholunk boll ubechem.
for the world to carry on, it needs sustenance.
Refrain:
Tujê bogor mhaka nam jivit,
Without You, there is no life in me
nam boll, Jezu, ani podvi
without strength, Jesus, no authority
Mitt hanv, Jezu, punn nam kharsann,
I am the salt, Jesus, without a salty taste ,
tela ponntti tela vinnem,
an oil lamp without oil,
katorlolo rukha-khando,
the tree branch that has been cut,
bigoddlolo kuddi-sandho.
like a limb severed from the body.
Jezu, mhaka Tum zaun asai
Jesus, You are for me,
oronneantlo svadik Manna,
sweet bread from the wilderness,
Dev-Porjêcho Ujea-Khambo
the burning branch of the people of God,
Israelchem Khoddpa-Udok.
a spring of water from Israel's rock
