Lest We Retain

Soirce: blog to.com
Lest we retain the good in us
Lest we retain the gifts in us
Because they can’t bear enduring fruits
In our own hands, and under our own care. 

Let’s take them under the protection 
Of the Source of all good things
Under the care 
Of the Creator of all gifts. 

For He alone can take care best
He alone can fructify and multiply best
He alone can polish them 
He alone can make them shine in a loving way. 

Let’s say: 
Take under your protection. 
Let’s say: 
Suscipe!
