- O wellspring of eternal life,
All life is grafted, Lord, in you.
You break asunder bonds of death,
And give your life to us anew.
- Descending from your splendid throne,
You’ve brought this gift to us below:
Profusely from your open side,
Divinest riches you bestow.
p. 357
- Your Mystic Body we have joined,
Engrafted by baptismal grace.
Life flowing from your seven springs
Lifts up anew our fallen race.
- Though wounded by our parent’s fault,
Our nature is by grace restored;
Virtue is practiced for your love
And reaps the heavenly reward.
- For only you can give true peace,
Lead lands to live in harmony,
Cause innocence to bloom in homes,
Grant to our works prosperity.
- Our everlasting Truth, Way, Life—
By you we’re led, by you we live.
To Father, you, and Paraclete
May all men praise and glory give. Amen.
