DEAR LADY OF FATIMA

At Fatima we were asked to sacrifice for others,

This request to save souls came from our Blessed Mother.

If we make sacrifices, pray for sinners as she asked,

If we embrace her daily rosary and her devotional tasks,

 

If we seek to love God with all our hearts and minds and souls,

If we place our lives in His hands; give to Him control,

If we perform works of mercy, and offer mercy too,

If we humbly ask the Lord to work through everything we do,

 

If we turn to Mother Mary, beg her prayerful intercession,

If we repent of all our sins, at first-Saturday confession.

If we give to God our suffering, all the ways that we’ve been hurt,

If we pray that by the grace of God, Russia will convert.

 

If we offer God our heartfelt love, and hopes now dead or lost,

If we give to Christ our sorrows, unite them with His cross,

If before the Lord we seek to be quiet and be still,

If we try to see Him in all souls, seek to do His Holy will.

 

If we lift our hearts to heaven, pray for souls who’ve strayed,

Can’t we have faith He’ll hear our pleas that loved ones might be saved?

If we pray can’t we believe that one day they’ll be whole?

That our dear Lord will hear our prayers, have mercy on their souls?

 

The heavens may be waging war.  There may be a brutal fight.

But the Lord can take our loved ones out of darkness into light.

Dear Lady, at Fatima, God worked the miracle of the Sun.

Beg God for His mercy, that His perfect will be done.

 

Our Lady of Fatima, make haste, do not delay,

Our Lady of Fatima, for us, make haste, do pray.
