The Malayalam liturgical tradition is rich with keertanams (devotional songs) that blend ancient Syriac and Indian musical sensibilities. "Karuna Niranjavane" (Oh You who are full of Grace) is a prayer addressed to the Risen Christ. The word Punarudhanathil translates to "in the Resurrection." This hymn is distinct from the more famous "Karuna Niranjavane" addressed to Mary; this version specifically focuses on the post-Resurrection appearance of Jesus.
