“He Is Your Father”
A Poem By Little Gregory
From the Perspective of Mother Mary
Dearest child,
When you find yourself amidst the dark of night
And you need someone, just to hold you tight
Hold onto my Son, with all of your might
And He will illuminate your heart with grace’s pure light
For He is your Father,
And His Love for you always shines bright
When your horizon is covered with fog and haze,
And you need someone, just to look into their gaze
Gaze upon my Son, now and for the rest of your days
And He will lead you to the land of paradise and praise
For He is your Father,
And His Love for you is forever ablaze
When you’re confused about where you should go
And you need someone, just to let them know
Listen to my Son, let your mind settle and slow
And His Dream, His Plan, His Will for you He will soon show
For He is your Father,
And His Love for you from the Cross did flow
When you aren’t sure what exactly you should do
And you need someone, just to be close to
Pray to my Son, do whatever He tells you
And He will place you on the path toward angelic virtue
For He is your Father,
And His love for you is tried and true
When you’re feeling defeated, down, or just plain tired
And you need someone, just to be inspired
Yearn for my Son, Who for you gave up His spirit and expired
And in Him, you’ll find more peace than you’ve ever desired
For He is your Father,
And His Love for you demands to be adored and admired
When the harsh words of others cut you to the core
And you need someone, just to rub where it’s sore
Believe in my Son, His goodness, compassion, and kindness implore
And you will experience His healing all the more
For He is your Father,
And His Love for you can’t help but be admired and adored
When discouragements and distractions start to prod and poke
And you need someone, just to take upon your yoke
Touch my Son, even just the hem of His cloak
And in His joy and laughter you will soon soak
For He is your Father,
And His Love for You is not a joke!
When your conscience is full of guilt and shame
And you need someone, just to say their name
Say the name of Jesus, His infinite mercy ask for and acclaim
And He will purify your soul like gold in a flame
For He is your Father
And His Love for you yesterday, today, and tomorrow is the same
When you’re looking back on your deathbed
And you need someone, just to hold your head
Remember my Son, and all the Blood He shed
That one day by His Body you might be daily fed
For He is your Father,
And if you truly trust, then do not be afraid…
His Love for you will raise you from the dead
In all my love, and the love of My Son,
Mary, Mother of God
And Your Mother, my little Beloved One
Verse:
“For the Father loves the Son and shows him everything that he himself does, and he will show him greater works than these that you may be amazed.”
-John 5:20 (NABRE)
Quote:
“My Heart overflows with great mercy for souls, and especially for poor sinners. If only they could understand that I am the best of Fathers to them and that it is for them that the Blood and Water flowed from My Heart as from a fount overflowing with mercy. For them I dwell in the tabernacle as King of Mercy. I desire to bestow My graces upon souls, but they do not want to accept them.”
-Jesus to St. Faustina in her Diary, Divine Mercy in My Soul (367)
