My Body and My Soul

Today,
my sinned hands
wash out in the 
blood of wounds;
Today,
my big head
bow down at your 
altar of pure love;
Today,
my two eyes,
looks with a guilt
at  the feet
of your  kindness;
Today,
my ruined body
feels by the holy touch
of the cross;
My body; My soul is all yours
My land; My heart is all yours !
