Hours
NONE (3 p.m.)
The sun silently proceeds on its course of blessing
as the Spirit leads us on to Golgotha.There I see your motherly heart powerfully renounce
and courageously annihilate each right as mother.
With your only-begotten Son you offer yourself to the Father
on the throne for the salvation of the world.In the shrine you wish to form souls
who are always priestly in their life and bearing,
standing as deacons at the foot of the cross
and going the way of the cross with the Redeemer.Through my life of sacrifice let me complete—
in keeping with eternally valid laws
and the spirit of the Inscriptio—
whatever fullness is still lacking in the cross and suffering of Christ.Glory be joyfully given to the Father
through Christ with Mary, highly praised,
in the Holy Spirit full of splendor
from the universe now and in all eternity.Amen.
