God’s Blue Book 83
After Mass:
R.In my desperation, I called out to You, Jesus, and You came and
answered me. You set my feet on solid ground and I knew only
You had the might to pull me from the depths of despair.
Alleluia. Praise His Name for He is holy and to be honored. I
clothed myself in a white robe and took off the cloak of despair
and I knew the Spirit had filled me for my darkness had lifted.
Only God has this might—to pull us from the pits and lift us on
our way, to spread a mantle of light over us and heal our weary
souls! Oh, Jesu, Jesu, You are all love. I am Your little one caught
in this world. You came and rescued my tarnished little soul. You
gave me milk and honey to eat and You patted me with Your gentle
hand and I felt the love I longed for. Oh, Jesu, Jesu, fill us
with this love. Replace our hate and anguish with a filler of
divine love. Oh, love that melts all hardened hearts, that warms
the cold child, that puts a smile on the stone-jawed man, You
have this might. You furnish us on our way and we are made
whole in Your love. Alleluia. Praise Him.
We are weak, but You are our strength. We are bowed down,
but You raise us up to such heights of glory. Oh Ye, Oh Ye, Lord,
God Almighty, come into our starved souls and feed us. Feed us
with Your love. Let us radiate You from our very souls, Your
presence within us. And You, Lord, are truly here in our hearts.
This letter gives testimony to the Spirit that filled my dark
soul, that was taunted by Satan, that looks at the sick world and
feels its pain. Look only to You, God. The victory is won. The
fight is over! In You we find rest. We no longer look in the darkness.
We focus on Your light and You energize us and give us
Your peace, Your love, Your joy. You use our weak bodies for
Your work and You love us just the same. In our weakness You
love us as You do in our strength. Your unconditional love is
always there. Alleluia, Alleluia.
Praise the Lord. Oh, Lord, what do words say that give You
honor? There are none worthy of You. I can only speak in
tongues to You. Oh, praise You, the song of the soul!
Praise You with this song of my soul, oh Lord. Your honor is
blessed on all the earth. Alleluia. For in my desperation I cried
out and You saved me from Satan. He is a liar. He is cunning and
ready for attack, but You filled my hungry soul and sent him into
the depths of hell. Alleluia. Praise the Lord—Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit. Alleluia. You are our King. You reign forever. Your
kingdom is not of this world, but of the world to come and we
will be its heirs for our life spent in service of You. Alleluia,
