You, oh Lord, have given us everything
Before the world came to be, You were I AM,
Already offering Yourself to us in love and beautyLord, teach us the path of Our Lady and St. Joseph,
Who, in darkness of sand storms, clung to the One, the Child Jesus,
And in so doing, loved without bounds.Let our hands not trouble themselves,
With matters that will only bind them,
Preventing us from embracing You into our heartsFor in giving of Yourself, oh Lord,
You’ve opened for us the gift of others,
That in You, we can love with a love that burns tenderly.May we respond with desire for You, oh Lord, and You alone.
