Blessed Be


Oh God bless my Lenten journey,

Let me walk the path of Jesus.

Blessed be the path of giving. 

Blessed be the path of discipling.

Blessed be the garden of grieving. 

Blessed be the mountain of the cross. 

Blessed be these forty days. 


May I be more forgiving, more generous,

More forgiving, more grateful,

As I trod the desert path 

Leading to Easters water —

A fountain springing up

Toward eternal life.
