Our Lady of Mount Carmel
Prayer for the New Millennium |
 |
O most radiant blossom in the garden of God,
who opened so completely
to the seed of Divine love ~
plant yourself now in the reality of my heart.
Turning to you as sister ~
take my hand in yours and share with me
your gift of faith ...
as we climb the mountain to God,
remind me that the overshadowing presence
of the Holy Spirit will open
the vision of my soul to all that I cannot see.
Yearning for you as mother ~
lift me onto your lap and hold me gently
in the arms of hope,
sharing with me the promise of new life
passing from one generation to the next.
Reaching out to you as patroness ~
enfold me in your mantle of care
permeate my spirit with the grace of love ...
may my yield for you be full
and my service to God complete.
As Our Lady of This Place ~
continue to be my guiding star;
ignite in me wisdom ~
that I might follow your lead ...
conceiving the Word within,
and bringing Jesus to birth in yet
a new day and time.
