O MERCIFUL LADY OF LOVE / by Joe Castorino

Prayer in the Dark Night of Unknowing

O merciful Lady of Love,

Teach me holy compassion;

O joyful Lady of Love,

Teach me to smile;

O peaceful Lady of Love,

Teach me to surrender;

O patient Lady of Love,

Teach me to slow down;

O kind Lady of Love,

Teach me to think of others;

O generous Lady of Love,

Teach me poverty in spirit;

O faithful Lady of Love,

Teach me trust in Divine Mercy;

O gentle Lady of Love,

Teach me holy humility;

O imperturbable Lady of Love,

Teach me to be calm in battle;

O wise Lady of Love,

Teach me to listen to the Word.

O Jesus, living in Santa Maria,

I wholeheartedly trust in you!

Live, Jesus!

Amen.
