Paidir an Ghrá ~ A Prayer of Love

Grant us, Lord,
hearts that love You above all things,
minds that seek Your wisdom,
hands eager to serve,
and lips quick to bless.

Let charity overcome anger,
mercy overcome judgment,
and hope overcome despair.

Make us faithful in little things,
steadfast in suffering,
generous in kindness,
and joyful in Your service.

So may our lives become
a living hymn
to the glory of Christ.

Amen.
