The joy of being

Be with Thy servant O Lord,
In the time of Joy and time of Sorrow
in every moment of life which is Thine own gift to me
Let me not forget that everything is sent by Thy bountiful hands

Thy table is overflowing with mercy
And from Thy right hand derives strength and peace
May my soul be always yearning for Thy presence
And may my eyes thirst for Thine inexhaustible beauty

Thy Words are good seeds planted in good soil
Wisdom sprouts and begets beauty of action
The sweetest action of all is that of prayer
And upon the sight of Thy comely countenance
Thus prayerful heart bears love and its offspring

How beautiful, how meaningful
Here is my sorrow, Lord
Let it be lifted up and transformed
into beauty and into victory
Here is my joy, Lord
in knowing that Life is about You and Your love story

Every moment, every struggle, everything
May they become the means of getting closer to You
However worthless, yet by Thy grace we dare

Cover our hands and our feet
and our head and our eyes
and our ears and our tongues
so we might perceive all through Thy love
that everything arouses us to love Thou even more
That nothing remains but our love toward Thy Indescribable love
Glory to You, Lord! Glory to You
