THE LIGHTHOUSE / by Joe Castorino

A simple little child of God,

He humbly and obediently ascends

The steps of the sanctuary,

In holy reverence and awe,

Then as he stands before the ambo,

He stands before The Word,

And he is inside the lighthouse;

As he slowly begins to proclaim, 

The Spirit swiftly descends and

Love shines forth brilliantly from

The lighthouse into the nave,

Radiant red and white beams

That fill our hearts with wisdom,

Wisdom from the Divine Mercy.
