Payer from Deus Caritas Est

"Holy Mary, Mother of God,
you have given the world its true light,
Jesus, your Son - the Son of God.
You abandoned yourself completely to God's call
and thus became a wellspring of
the goodness which flows forth from him.
Show us Jesus. Lead us to him.
Teach us to know and love him,
so taht we too can become
capable of true love
and be fountains of living water
in the midst of a thirsting world.
Amen."
