I. Exposition
All: Father in heaven, you have made us for yourself; our hearts
are restless until they rest in you. Fulfill this longing through
Jesus, the Bread of Life, so that we may witness to him who
alone satisfies the hungers of the human family. By the
power of your Spirit lead us to the heavenly table where we
may feast on the vision of your merciful love for ever and
ever.
All: O Jesus, Divine Prisoner of Love, when I consider your Love and
how you emptied yourself for me, my senses deaden. You hide
your inconceivable majesty and lower yourself to miserable
me. O King of Glory, though You hide your beauty, yet the eye
of my soul rends the veil. I see the angelic choirs giving you
honour without ceasing, and all the Heavenly Powers praising
you without cease, and without cease they are saying: HOLY,
HOLY, HOLY.
Thanks be to God!

Grace, they may once more choose to be part of Gods family. R/-
