Gebete

Prayer of Father Jordan

Oh Sun of Justice, shine and enlighten my soul
so its footsteps may be like the morning light
that walks and lengthens to perfect day.

O Savior of all people,
let me always burn with a great love for you
so that I inflame all.

Lord Jesus Christ,
take my prayer and all that I have.
Here I am, send me.
Show me the ways to guide all to you.
O Savior of all people, you are our Savior.

 

Prayer – poem of Mother Mary of the Apostles (“Yearning” 1875)

Wenn ich von Missionen höre
Fühl’ ich einen Drang in mir,
Eine Liebe und ein Sehnen,
Wie sie sonst mir unbekannt.

Meine Tage werden kürzer,
Meine Haare werden grau,
Aber diese Lieb’ im Herzen,
Schwächet nicht, sie wächst in mir!

Eins nur, eins ich noch begehrte,
Könnt’ ich etwas dienen noch,
Etwas für Missionen thuen,
Etwas ganz Besondres noch!

Wer gab mir denn diesen Eifer,
Wer gab mir denn diesen Drang,
Kommt er nicht von meinem Heiland;
Führt er nicht zum Heiland hin!

Will mich ganz und gar Dir schenken,
Ganz und gar, für was Du willst,
Ganz in Demuth will ich schwinden,
Als ein armes Werkzeug Dein!

Wenn ich dann am Todbett liege,
Sag’ ich: Sieh, es ist geschehn,
Was sich stets zog durch Dein Leben,
Sieh, es hat entfaltet sich!...
