Come Maria

We want to live, Lord,
offering our lives to You,
with this bread and this wine
accept who we are.
We want to live, Lord,
abandoned to Your voice,
detached from vain things,
fixed in true life.

WE WANT TO LIVE LIKE MARIA,
THE UNATTAINABLE,
THE BELOVED MOTHER
WHO CONQUERS THE WORLD WITH LOVE
AND ALWAYS OFFER YOUR LIFE
THAT COMES FROM HEAVEN.

Accept from our hands
as a pleasing offering to You
the desires of every heart,
the anxieties of our lives.
We want to live, Lord,
ignited by Your words
to bring back in every man
the living flame of Your love.
