TEXT
O Son of God,
perform a
miracle for me:
Change my heart.
You, whose
crimson blood
redeems mankind,
whiten my heart.
It is you who
makes the sun
bright
and the ice
sparkle;
You who makes
the rivers flow
and the salmon
leap.
Your skilled
hand makes the
nut-tree
blossom,
and the wheat
turn golden;
Your spirit
composes the
songs of the
birds
and the buzz of
the bees.
Your creation is
a million
wondrous
miracles,
Beautiful to
behold.
I ask of you
just one more
miracle:
beautify my
soul.
