O Mary,

we have exiled your Divine Son from our lives,

our councils,

our education,

and our families!

Come with the light of the sun

as the symbol of His Power!

Heal our wars,

our dark unrest;

cool the cannon’s lips so hot with war!

Take our minds off the atom

and our souls out of the muck of nature!

Give us rebirth in your Divine Son, us,

the poor children of the earth grown old with age!

Amen.
