September 25th – St. Vincent Strambi
Jesus, by this Saving Sign, bless this listless soul of mine. Jesus, by Thine Feet nailed fast, mend the missteps of my past. Jesus, with Thine riven Hands, bend my will to Love’s demands. Jesus, in Thine Heart laid bare, warm my inner coldness there. Jesus, by Thine thorn-crowned Head, still my pride till it is dead. Jesus, by Thine muted Tongue, stay my words that hurt someone. Jesus, by Thine tired Eyes, open mine to faith’s surprise. Jesus, by Thine fading Breath, keep me faithful until death. Yes, Lord, by this Saving Sign, save this wayward soul of mine - St. Vincent Strambi
