PRECIOUS IS OUR LIFE

Oh son of God, son of Mary
One with the Father and the Spirit
May thy spirit be within us
You who are fully man fully God
Let they mercy flow

May thy spirit be within us
Oh son of God, Son of Mary.
The word made flesh within her virginal womb
Source of all life
You drew thy bodies life from within
her virginal womb

May thy spirit be within us
Oh son of God, Son of Mary,
Word made flesh, dwelling in our Mother's virginal womb
You chose her for our own true Mother
Waiting for her, yes

You send thy spirit to us
As you did from her virginal womb
Sanctifying St. Elizabeth and St. John
While waiting in his mother's womb
May thy spirit be within us

May thy spirit be within us
Oh son of God, son of Mary
Who authors all life
Holding it oh so dear
Each baby newly conceived, like thee
Is waiting for Mother's yes

Oh so often, yes is never heard
Send thy spirit to us.
Son of God, son of Mary
Thy Father grieves and Heaven wails
For the loss of such innocent life

Your own heart sheds drops of blood
While the spirit and the bride weep
Oh son of God, Son of Mary
Dwelling in our Mother's womb
Who will grieve for so many babies
dying in their mother's womb

No time has passed, no time will come
For such killing in the womb
Your just wrath held back
For just awhile longer
As we plead mercy, mercy, mercy

Cover us with Your Precious Blood, fill us with Your Spirit
Oh Son of God, Son of Mary
Dwelling in our mother's womb
What justice will your wrath lay upon the earth
No less, no more your holy word reveals

Wait, just a day longer, let thy mercy flow
For in thy justice who could stand
Let thy mercy flow
Cover us with thy precious blood and fill us with thy spirit
Oh Son of God, Son of Mary
Let thy mercy flow.
AMEN
