ഭൂവും വാനവും തൻ മഹിമയാൽ തിങ്ങിടുന്നല്ലോ സന്തതം ശ്രീയേഴും ദിവ്യ പ്രേഷിതർ ധന്യർ നിവ്യന്മാർ വേദസാക്ഷികൾ നിത്യാനന്ദ പ്രതാപവാനങ്ങേ വാഴ്ത്തീടുന്നു നിരന്തരം – 2

The "Te Deum" is believed to have been written in the 4th century, and its journey to the shores of Kerala is a fascinating one. The chant likely arrived with Portuguese missionaries in the 16th century. It's recorded that when Vasco da Gama's fleet landed in Kerala in 1502, the missionaries who accompanied them may have sung this hymn to give thanks for their safe voyage. Less than a hundred years later, the "Te Deum" was an integral part of the concluding procession at the historic Synod of Diamper (Udayamperur) in 1599, where it was sung in Latin, Syriac, and Malayalam.

O God, we praise YouO Lord, we glorify YouYou, the eternal, everlasting FatherThe whole earth bows down before You.

"We are living our lives for the divine"
