Third Joyful Mystery, The Nativity

Be born in us,
Incarnate Love.

Take our flesh and blood,
and give us Your humanity;

Take our eyes,
and give us Your vision;

Take our minds,
and give us your pure thought;

Take our feet,
and set them in your path.

Take our hands,
and fold them in Your prayer;

Take our hearts,
and give them Your will to love.

~Caryll Houselander

Dear Mary, Mother of Our Lord and Savior, bring Incarnate Love to birth within us this day so that all the ends of the earth may see the saving power of Your Son in and through us. Amen.
