MOTHER OF PERPETUAL HELP
Hail Mary, Full of Grace,
I picture you as one who gracefully
steps into the picture of anyone
who needs help - anyone whose
marriage has run out of the wine of life
or someone who needs a pair of sandals -
or anyone who screams for, “Help!”
Hail Mary, Full of Grace,
help me to picture myself as one
who gracefully steps out of my frame
and becomes at least a momentary help
to someone in need, especially those
carrying a heavy cross - or to stand under
their cross and hear their screams for “Help!”
