Our Eternal Light
Lord, may the spirit of light emitted by these candles on display,
Be pleasing to You and Your heavenly hosts in every way.
May the petitioners who seek The Saint's guidance from Above,
Be rewarded with answers to their plea and Your enduring love!
May each of these feeble flames in our souls ignite,
A glowing blaze to uphold all that is just and right.
May the light that they emit be pleasing in Your sight.
We light them for You, our Creator, our Hope and Eternal Light!
