“Open wide your door
to the One who comes.

the treasures of peace,
the sweetness of grace.
Open your heart and run to meet
the Sun of eternal light
that illuminates all men.”

“If we wish to make any progress in the service of God,
we must begin everyday of our life, with new eagerness.

as much as possible and have no other view
or end, in all our actions but the divine honour.”

and lead us, to where we had not expected to go.”
