St. Therese's Canticle of Love
How great and tender is our God, who has smiled on the lowly.
Eternally my heart will sing a new canticle of love.
Come, all who hunger, all who thirst, all who long for fulfillment.
The God of mercy waits for you as a mother her child.
Through the veil your face appears, beauty shrouded, bathed in tears.
Bread of sinners I will share, rose unpetaled everywhere.
Ah! My God, I will sing of your love for this one eternal day.
For this one eternal today, eternal today.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among

Amen.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it
was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.
"Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it

Itinataas namin ang mga nagdurusa. Makamtam nawa nila ang mabuting
kalusugan. Lingapin mo rin ang mga kumakalinga sa kanila. Pagkamitin
mo ng kapayapaang walang hanggan ang mga pumanaw na.
Dakilang San Roque, inihahandog ko sa iyo ang buong buhay ko, kasama
ang aking kaisipan, damdamin at gawain, nagpapasalamat din ako sa iyo sa
lahat ng biyayang nakamtan ko sa Diyos sa iyong pamamagitan at nawa'y
ang lahat ng ito ay makatulong sa akin upang makarating ako sa buhay na
walang hanggan. Nawa'y ang banal na buhay mo ay maging uliran sa akin
at kung sakaling ang paggawa ng mabuti ay maging mahirap para sa akin,
ipagkamit mo na ako'y magkaroon ng biyaya at lakas ng loob na sumunod
sa iyong mga yapak, ikaw na nagpakita ng mabuting halimbawa sa isang
pamumuhay sa piling ng Diyos.
