Literature Text

Miserere nobis, Domine.
For now we cross a threshold into night.
Grant that we may in time come back to light;
but now, forgive us that we turn away.
In leaving do I knowing leave fair day,
reasoned from faith. Abandoning delight,
I turn for good cause from our loving rite
and flee the altar where we joined to pray.
  Ora pro nobis. Pray for us, Love Lord,
poor sinners. In our need to give, we shared
dear love, when that was all we could afford.
Et dona nobis pacem. Give us peace;
absolve us from our creed once fierce declared
and grant us, now and in that hour, release.
Second of four.
