PRAYER

 Prayer

(Pope John XXIII)

O sweet Child of Bethlehem, 

grant that we may share with all our hearts

in this profound mystery of Christmas. 

Put into the hearts of men and women this

peace for which they sometimes seek so desperately and

 which you alone can give to them.

Help them to know one another better and to live as 

brothers and sisters; children of the same Father. 

Reveal to them also your beauty,  holiness and purity.

Awaken in their hearts love and gratitude for your infinite goodness.

Join them all together in your love and give us your heavenly peace.

Amen  

St Norbert, pray for us
